Default Using CTEK Charger on 997.2
Hi,

Just wondering which outlet to use for trickle charging my 997.2? The cigarette lighter or the socket in the rear compartment begging the handbrake?

Also should I just close the door on the cable?

Thanks

I've always used the one in the passenger foot well. Same dif though so any will work.
