Power Socket- pops up
The power socket on the center console is no longer staying in the closed position. Stays open. Took it apart and it looks like the catch has weakened. Any of you guys have it replaced. I am out of warranty, any idea what it costs? I can replace it myself.

Yes, this was an issue with the 05 RLs. In fact it occured to several of the early 05 car mag reviewers and it had an extraordinary impact on the quality perception of the 05 RL. To my knowledge was addressed in the 06 model and I have not heard of anyone reporting issues with it beyond the 05 year.
Frankly, if the pop up power port is what made the RLs quality take a hit, I will be thankful. I have seen reports for the RL models post 05 and th quality ratings were quite good. The 05 had some annoying, but relatively minor bugs, and to my knowledge...all have been addressed with TSBs.
