hi all

the conv. top on my '98 is not working (currently in down position) according to porsche dealer they have to force deck lid open, which will ruin both transmissions and cause more damage just to diagnose problem. upon getting top in "service position" repairs can begin.

does anyone have info. on how to open deck lid without damage? please help!
(very crucial, info to all if boxster top is ever stuck in down position)

ps: checked fuses, brake light and brake lever all working properly.

thanks
