Switching Calipers

Hope that everyone is wintering well. The countdown is on. I hope to have my car out of storage in 5-6 weeks although it is snowing as we speak. We just finished a 27 hour power outage from a storm earlier this week which certainly makes a person look forward to spring even more. Will a set of calipers from a 2001 Boxter S fit on a 1998 Boxster? As always, thanks in advance for your help.

I believe they are a bolt on, but you will also need the larger rotors from the S.

Thanks JMatta for the advice. I am not a mechanic by any stretch and I never thought about the rotors being a different size. Thanks Again!
