I've been looking on eBay for one recently and seem to be having trouble finding one .

I even contacted a seller about the pair they had as th pictures looked to have both flaps broken off , they assured me both where there but when I asked for additional CLEAR photos they said they could not as they where already packed ready to ship out !!!
Mine was missing when I made an offer on the car from a local dealership. I asked for it to be replaced as part of the offer. They ordered it and some other stuff, and asked me to come back about a week later. I imagine they got it directly from Porsche. They are proabably not very expensive, I would imagine. Have you checked Pelican Parts?

Sunvisor Delete!
Get rid- there is a kit to replace the stubs.

I use pelican parts ....
Every time I need a part I check there website , alas 9 times out of 10 it is cheaper/better to use my local Porsche dealer
I think today's minor purchase at my local dealer was around 50% more expensive at pelican ....
They had it as a stock part and within 2 hours my car locks again








I also have a very interesting bit of information should any of you tip owners ever need a multifunction switch

However , I really should try both for a replacement visor .
I will do that tommorrow .
