The European one from Mityvac. It's more robust than the Motive one where people have had issues with hoses popping off (though probably rare).

While the interior plastics improved with the 987 generation, some areas are still prone to wear. Anyone else have the same issue?

You'd think that'd be a pretty straightforward swap, but seeing how I'm addressing this in ownership month #20, yeah, not so much. There are 2 critical steps one needs to take before tackling this task:
Number 1 - disconnect the battery since you'll be disabling an airbag.

Number 2 - get yourself a hot beverage and a chocolate chip cookie (none of that oatmeal raisin nonsense).

As you've probably guessed by now, the door panel needs to be removed. Not terribly difficult, just a few Torx screws neatly tucked away.

Unfortunately that connector was giving me a hard time so I temporarily taped that assembly to stay out of the way while I popped the door clips off.

As long as the door doesn't suddenly fall, it'll be fine.

The weight of the door yanked the connector out from the switch and ultimate broke it. Soooo buying a new switch wasn't something I was expecting to do that day.

So here's the deal: that trim insert isn't held in by clips, tabs, screws, glue, double-side tape, peanut butter, or honey. No, it's held in by 9 plastic pins/posts that are welded to the door panel.

Like others, I decided that I wasn't gonna deal with trying to melt the plastic using a soldering iron (who's got a plastic welder anyway?) but instead, use screws & washers. This has the benefit of making the part easily replaceable in the future while having more control with drawing in the insert uniformly. Fortunately I was able to use existing hardware. I think I measured the pin OD to be 0.220" with an ID of 0.110", and the screw thread OD was 0.140" (5/8" long).
Used a Dremel to cut the pins flush with the door panel.

Great writeup. I was thinking those bits on my car would look good if they matched the newly painted console.. but after seeing the plastic rivets I'm not so sure. Wonder if it would be possible to reassemble it with some 3M double-sided emblem tape?

Overall this was time-consuming but not particularly hard. Plastic welders aren't that expensive either but I didn't see myself needing one in the future so I didn't consider buying one, plus the soldering iron can do the job.

After buttoning everything up, got an error about my LED license plate lights not working. I knew I plugged them and after some troubleshooting, realized they both fried at the same time.![Confused](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)

Hit you with a sub on YouTube. Massive props for starting to make videos. I know it's much more work than it appears to get started, but if you stay with it it'll pay off!
Also how nice is that quick jack?! I'm jealous.

The monetization requirements are pretty extreme too: 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hrs of watched content over 12 months. I just want to get to 100 subscribers so I can create a custom URL.
