Yeah, it wasn't cheap, but I think it was the only option for my mirror. I think the Boxster's varied quite a bit over the years, especially when you start adding the auto-dimming mirrors.

It tucks up very close on mine. You can't get your finger in between the bottom of the mirror and the top of the detector, but there is plenty of room to adjust the mirror.

I thought that it might block my visibility some, but because it sits so high, it's not a problem. Because I have the auto-dimming mirrors, I was also able to get a short cable and tap into the power inside the mount which was nice.
