I have a similar setup as Chuck. Mine still blinks but it is very dim until the wing is fully extended then it is nice and bright.

If you are interested I have the "none push button" version I never installed.
I changed my mind after I bought it and went with the switch from Chuck's link.

It is the glossy version, angled up for the left side.

Thank you for the link

Disregard my PM to you - excuse my ignorance I was confused about the spoiler switch. I going to go with the one that does not light up.

I am going order it from Pelican Parts - In the near future I need to order basic maintenance parts anyway

Great idea.

Does anyone know if a similar switch is available that I can use for my Garage door controller mod? Basically I can use a similar switch wired to a (concealed) garage door opener to have a switch for Garage door opening in my 2004 Boxster base. Pics attached for reference..

It would be great if I can find a switch that has some image for this purpose embossed/printed on it. In absence of that I am forced to use a window up and down switch and I found it is not easy to remove the print...:-)

Thanks!

Yes there is a button with the garage door opener, but it comes only in mate finish (Carrera style) and horysontly mounted.
