I suggest being very careful and do considerable research before removing.

Last weekend I replaced the 2 hydraulic rams that open/close the cabrio top because one was leaking. After I finished, the top somehow was out of sync and required calibration, which requires Porsche computer software.

There are multiple switches and sensors in the top and if you remove the part you are describing, you may impact operation. Just do your homework prior.

BTW, my repair bill is going to be over $2,500 since the front latch is shot as well. It alone has 2 or 3 switches/sensors that communicate the the control module. The part alone is $1,600.
