my 2002 type one like this one, it broke and wouldn't slide out, so I went to b+q and bought a small 20mm cupboard knob, in black, (ball shaped) £3. I rilled the centre of the thumb press area and bolted it on. presto, it works, it looks okish. and I saved £90. I was hoping to buy a ebay one cheap, but that doesn't happen, an now its staying....

Does your 2007 - 2009 FFRR have the old 2002 - 2004 light switch? If that hasn't changed then you stand a chance of fitting the early cup holder, as it was in the place the lhd light switch would have gone. But you would have the fit the early dash end as well, I haven't be allowed to go near a newer one, so I'm only guessing |

Craig ( Cam-Tec) has done it , and it is not easy i'm afraid so you had better really want to do it because I think he said the glove box has to be modded 2008 MY Supercharged

Craigs looked good - I think he had to replace the entire end panel though |

As someone has been keeping secretes, I thought I'd do a little digging myself |

Thank you, I never knew the early L322's just used a left hand drive 'piece' and filled the light switch area with a cup-holder, clever. Off to ebay.com now to have a look |

Any forum members in countries with left hand drive cars know of a LHD (2006 - 2013) Switch Panel in Piano Black 'parting out' as they say ie any car breakers specialising in FFRR's. Porsche 993 Targa, Buick Skylark Convertable 1968 |
