Photo of the lower P/S line connection to the pump and the rear P/S line connected to the pump. The red ring that you see in the second picture is the piece that holds in that line. Todd told me how to get the line out for this one. You have to hold that little red clip in against the pump and then you will be able to pull the line straight out. I used a small pair of needle nose to hold it in place. It can be a bit of a pain but it is not a big deal. Then to reinstall the boxster line just simply hold the red clip against the pump again and push in the new line.

The other things that I did that really didn't get pictures but I think should be in the post, the oil filler tube and the lower dipstick tube both got new O-rings. No reason not to change them while they were out. I also ordered new O-rings for the injectors and a new clutch. I am going to be using a clutch out of a non-s 987. Todd has assured me that this is the way to go.

A photo of everything that I have done so far. I am now waiting for a throttle body gasket and intake manifold gaskets, clutch etc....
