Found this tread and I did the swap with a dual USB, only thing I did differently was I mounted the lighter knob on the cover.

How did you do that? Interested in maybe doing the same thing, so it keeps an OE look

Bought this recently and it looks as if it was made by Porsche.

That would be so, so perfect if it had a volt meter with it. Damn that looks good

Has anyone tried this? The video on the Porsche Classic lighter replacement is compelling. Love how snug it fits.
