Hey folks,

I have been doing a lot of research on the OBC/cruise hack. mainly here at RennTech.org, but I have not found any place to get the 4 stalk inexpensively.

I've seen lost of references to the part numbers and some posts about the approximate price.

Does anyone know of the the least expensive palce to get part number 996.613.219.10 EWC (which I believe is the 4 stalk non-glossy one)

Thanks,

Will

Years ago the going rate was $150, but I'm sure prices have gone up. Check with Sunset Imports in Oregon.

If you know anyone converting their Boxster to a track car you might check that out. We have a local owner that converted and he had the 4 stalk unit. But I have told several local owners about it so I doubt he still has it.

Thanks guys.

First place I looked (for a year now) was ebay. I've checked CraigsList, here and a few others.

I got this from Jeff at Sunset.

"158.38 for just the 4 stalk unit and in stock. Plus 7-10 dollars shipping depending on zip code. Thanks, Jeff. 996-613-219-10-EWC."

I also checked with another company that was suggested in this Forum. It is Porsche Apart. here's what they stated.

"We have that item in stock at £120+VAT plus carriage"

that means it's about $240 plus whatever VAT is and shipping (carriage).

ToolPants, if you here anything let me know. I'll check with my Indie WrenchHead. I think he's doing some race stuff.

If anyone here's anything on it, drop me a line at willcapp@gmail.com

Thanks,

Will

Both of the above appear to have a broken turn signal stalk. If they also have the OBC then they can unbolt the OBC stalk and you can add the OBC stalk to your switch assembly. But you will not have cruise control. The cruise control stalk does not unbolt like the OBC stalk.

Strange - I bought one from Porsch-Apart about 9-10 months ago for £70.00(GBP)+VAT. Also, they shouldn't charge you UK VAT (17.5%) if they are shipping out of the UK. I bought the stalk, a '99 cruise actuator and throttle pedal for £140+VAT+shipping.

Just realised - maybe they were talking about brand new - mine was second hand.

Thanks for the posts. I guess I'll have to check to see if anyone has a broken assembly and have them unbolt the OBC stalk. I have a 3-stalk so I guess that could work with the correct wiring.

Hey Richard,

That is strange isn't it? I pasted part of the email that I received from them in my post so that there was no loss in translation. I was really looking forward to a great deal, bu alas.

I just purchased a brand new one from Jeff at Sunset for $158. It is worthwhile to check the price of new parts from Sunset. I have often been quoted prices on used parts that are higher than new from Jeff.
