According to the VIN, this Boxster is an RoW 2002 model, manufactured in Uusikaupinski, Finland.
There is no need to pull the radio retrieve the serial number. If you have a factory CDR-220:
Hold down the TP button for at least 10 seconds after you turn the radio on. "Becker 1" will be displayed. Rotate the right knob slowly, and it will display the Becker model number. Then rotate it again and the serial number should be displayed on the radio.
When you get the serial number, either post it on this forum and Heiko may be able to supply the code, or you could go to the Rennlist forum, and Loren will provide it.

Looking nice Chris & welcome to the world of Porsche ownership & I think the wheel is on the correct side
I personally think it's far better than the red one, are you talking about the OBC retrofit if so it's not too bad when you step through it  Just doing it myself, where in Cyprus are you located ?

Ha ha, it's a great feeling, I had to wait a bit longer due to family commitments for finally arrived at prosche ownership. If you need any pointers about the OBC then there are lots of instructions online.
lol, family spread out then, my mum has an apartment in Kato Pafos & I have been over a few times myself, weather was great & so was Aphrodites Water Park.
Enjoy

hmm, ok I ordered a plastic cover for my key with buttons to see if it will work but unfortunately didn't, with a new battery, I tried the steps to resynch.
oh well tomorrow I will get a new key.
however now as I was coming to work, I tried the trafficator to show right, but it doesn't hold up, it didn't happen few days ago, the left one works but the right I have to like keep holding it, any idea?
