Question Electrical gremlins with 2006 Boxster S

My car is having weird electrical gremlins.

First I have been burning 1 lightbulb per week for the last 3-4 weeks.

Then my car doesn't recognize my key buttons when I try to lock-unlock the door with my remote.

Now today the radio and cd stopped putting sound out. Radio seems to work but there is no sound coming out...

On Boxster forums they say it may be my ignition switch or charging system...I really don't have time to go to Laval and wait for the dealer to have a look at it.

I'd love to go to a local Porsche shop near my house but I guess they maybe aern't used to playing with electrical systems...

Does anyone have an idea of what could be wrong? Has this happened to your VW-Audi-Porsche before? (they share so many electrical parts and switches it's crazy)

thanks
