Replacement buttons (not volume *****) on 2008 PCM 2.1 Stereo
I dropped my cell phone tonight and it knocked the "audio" button off my PCM 2.1 stereo unit. The ones circled in red on this pic. Does anyone know if replacements are available? If so, do you know the part number? I've tried searching but only come up with replacement volume *****. Suncoast has similar buttons for the old CDR-30 but nothing is listed for the PCM unit. I'll ring the dealer tomorrow, but trying to get a head start tonight to stop me being so pissed-off with myself! Thanks in advance for any help.

No luck with Porsche...apparently they don't sell these replacement buttons. Dealer recommended ringing around other dealers to see if they have an old non-working unit hanging around that I could steal from. Not the ideal situation. If anyone on here has such a thing in their garage please let me know.

I have a second PCM unit for situations like this or if the unit fails that I bought off EBay for $300, I like to keep my car stock inside, so have a spare everything on the center stack (PCM, HVAC unit, etc.) Maybe try to find a non working one on EBay to swap out the button or call the guys below and see if they can sell you just the button?
I would try to get one off eBay. If you plan to keep your car for a long time, it is smart to have back ups as mentioned above.
...or you could just redo the system!! haha. I have thought about it a lot and I am hesitating because you lose some functionality with the sports chrono and etc.
If I buy a replacement unit, do you know if it is plug a play or will I have to get it coded for my car at the dealer? I hate to buy a full unit just for a single button, but up to now my options appear to be limited.

I think the .1 PCM is plug and play with no coding needed.
