I'm replacing it for the simple reason that when I pull the release handle I can tell the cable is broken. This cable was not one of Porsche's brightest ideas. Maybe they got it from Ford. No problem with the latch, or at least I wouldn't think so on a 7 year old vehicle. Maybe the saltwater in the FL air does more damage than the clear midwest Kansas stuff. FWIT, I'm still using the original cables and latches on my 1958 356A, 1962 and 1963 356Bs that I've owned beginning in 1974. Again I question the new version of a simple design.

Thanks for your input though.
