Convertible Top Relay.....

[986 Boxster]

I`m looking for a used convertible top relay that works on a 2001 Boxster to modify so it works as smart top relay. If you have one sitting around that you don`t need and want to sell let me know the price, thank you.

When I THOUGHT i needed one I found one on Ebay for 76.00 seller evifenocvt(5657)

Thanks, I`ve seen a few on ebay for $70.00-$80.00. If I can get one cheaper from a member on here why not ? I`ve seen some sold before for less than that. I`m not in a hurry, if I don`t get one on here, when spring comes I`ll just get one on ebay. I`m probably going to screw it up doing the modification, that`s why I`m trying not to pay a lot for it and then I have to put it in the garbage.

I've got one I no longer need. $40 plus shipping?

I`ll take if it`s for a 2000-04 Boxster and in working condition. I`m going to PM you my address so you can figure out shipping. Then I`ll paypal you the total amount once you figure out shipping amount, thanks.

It`s in the fuse box and it looks like the one in the picture. If it`s from a 2000-04 Boxster than it will fit.

If you still need one, I have one out of an 04. $40+shipping sounds fair to me.

Thanks for the offer. I`m waiting on dennisbd99 to finalize the deal on the one he has. If his is not the right one, than I`ll take yours, thank you.

[dennisbd99]

Okay, I got it pulled. Does this look like the right one?

Yeah that`s the right one. I`ll send payment, thanks.

[986 Boxster]

Payment sent.

[986 Boxster]

Received the relay yesterday, thanks dennisbd99. Thanks for the offering too amagalla. Now on to modifying it to work as a Smart Top Relay, I hope it works :dance:

Yes I was, and it works great. I just did the same as in this video, it`s a very easy mod. Good luck.

Thanks, I had already done the pin 18 bend, but still need to pull the park brake 1 notch, I may try the brake bypass as well

[986 Boxster]

You`re welcome. For the brake bypass you have to fold the 15 pin also and then solder a wire from the 15 to the 22 pin and then you don`t have to pull the emergency brake at all, it work just like the smart top relay.
