If you did not also order the Porsche Dock, you should have received:
• Input cable with NEMA 14-50 plug
• Iput cable with NEMA 5-15 plug
• Two-piece Charger mount / release latch
• J-1777 wall mount storage hook
• Screws and wrench for permanent attachment of input cable (sounds important but the mechanical latch is very effective without the screw)
• Two or four manuals for Charger and dock installation and use.

Ask for them. People are replacing shortages by taking them from another person’s car. Porsche takes too long to get replacements and they cost a fortune compared to the factory delivered price.
I am confused, I order the Porsche Dock (2021 Taycan, January Delivery) so does that mean I don't get the 110 plus for slow charging in an emergency or for travel (I know it is slow)?

You should receive all the same electrical connections, but you may not receive (varies by region?):
• Two-piece Charger mount / release latch
• J-1777 wall mount storage hook

Wow! Stunning! It is sure to give plenty of sore necks from turning heads!

Mine is on annacis - hopefully next week.

Next question for us BC owners - where will you stick the OK HOV EV sticker?

Thanks! Looking forward to seeing your pics too.

I refused to stick the HOV sticker on the paint or glass of my Cayenne, so my solution was to stick it onto a sheet of hard plastic (about 3mm), and trim it to the exact shape. I then drilled a hole in it so that I can mount it to the bottom of the license plate using one of the four screws. I should really just go outside and take a photo...

I will be doing the same with the Taycan sticker. That way I can install and remove it as required. I don't need the sticker too much, so this solution works well for me.

My friend taped his sticker on the inside of the back window of his e-tron. Super tinted rear hatch, so it's barely visible. He uses it daily and hasn't had an issue - yet.

I was in Merritt yesterday and passed by the Canadian Tire to check out the Electrify Canada station. They have about 6 "pump" islands most are 150kw but the last one in the row is a 350kw unit. Looks like it is up and operational. Who's Taycan will be first to test?
