When Porsche gets wind of this idea, they’ll offer it as a subscription service. $64/month or a one time payment of $1075. You’ll break even if you DCFC at least 20 times per month. But you might also be waiting several months without a flappy charge cover after signing up.
Oh yes, FoD. Flaps on Demand.

The flap should require an internet connection to work as well.

I had a thread started for ideas for options for Porsche. I need to add this.

@bsclywilly I ordered your part too - $4 part with $21 shipping :)

I figure I'll put whichever one matches the one I extricate...
There is probably a version for CCS1 and CCS2 hence you have two part numbers. Wouldn't surprise me if the two had diffrent flaps :)

So this flap was also broken on my Taycan too...

What did you end up doing? Did you install the replacement? Thanks!

I finally got around to fixing this. It turned out to be easy - I jammed a very small screwdriver in the slot below the old flap, and applied upward pressure. This released the catch on the old flap (breaking it in the process) and the old flap assembly slid right out.

The new one slid and snapped into place and works/looks like new.

This is the part.
