That's the magic question. I need to figure out who can make this for me out of metal...


Once I know who can do it, then we can all create one and have it engraved...
That’s anodized aluminum with laser etching. Talk to machine shop with laser marking equipment. Or perhaps a sign shop could source the plaque and then laser etch it for you.

It depends on what the water is like that you're going to feed it. In my area the TDS is so high that it's way Way WAY less expensive for me to buy distilled water by the gallon. FWIW, A TDS Meter is about $10. Ours is really bad! So, I wash and rinse the car with tap water. But then, I use a back pack bug sprayer (see below) to rinse the tap water rinse with a distilled water rinse. It takes about a gallon or two to thoroughly rise the car.

That is a great idea. I didnt know you could buy something to measure...i tried to look it up and i dont think its very hard where i live. I was going to use the spotless system for the final rinse and see how long it lasts. But that is a great idea.

I have my water hooked up to my water softener. I have valves I close the soft water supply to the pressure washer and I can redirect the water from water softener to the spot free system and then into the pressure washer. I just need to hold down the sprayer for about 15 seconds to purge the softened water out of the hose.

Please share the part number and order information. I searched the Porsche USA and Suncoast websites and did not find it. Thanks!

The charger I believe is Not For Sale and it's an exclusive product for certain Porsche dealers in China, which is a courtesy gift when ordering Taycan. Same in Japan you could see quite a few Porsche accessories only to be compliment gifts from their local dealers....!

Looking for a collapsible sunshade, something that doesn’t take up a lot of room. Any ideas?
