I don't think using the red clip is a good idea anyway.
You shouldn't leave your Boxster unattended long enough or be far away enough from it with the top down to necesitate such a device to secure your car.
And it takes a toll on your interior trim and leather to leave it exposed for long periods. You should see some of the sun damage to some old car covers I used in the past and the kicker is that I rarely used them. Raise the top if you are going to park it in the sun.

Perfectlap, you are correct. However, with my humps on, that clip prevents me from stupidly raising the top.

All said, that's not the point Travis and I were trying to make. The part is overpriced and the shipping seemed high. Substitute any other small part if you like and many aftermarket sellers charge far too much for these things.
