What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

Bored waiting for our 4th of July cookout to start, so I ordered the Rennline pedals/deadpedal and HT extensions (silver pedals, black rubber dots, red HT) with the 10% 4th of July discount code directly from Rennline.

Hi Lew, I ordered the accelator pedal cover rather than the mechanical pedal unit. The brake and clutch pedals require that you remove the oem rubber pads. I think the dead pedal just fits over the existing plastic piece. Mainly I wanted the look and I needed the toe extension for the throttle.

The part numbers I ordered are:

P71.60.59 SILVER Rennline Aluminum Pedal Set - 4 Piece
PE70_71HT RED Rennline Throttle Extension - Heel/Toe

I’ll post some comments and pics after install.

Not sure this goes here or the funny story thread.

I did not close my top when I arrived at work, as it was still cool out was going to make a coffee run before I closed the top. Well ended up 3 people for coffee, so forgot to close the top.

Upon my return to my car when I was going to another location to install an internet connection I had MILLIONS of very small bugs on my car in my car friggin everywhere. So had to go take a short spirted drive to try and blow them out of the car!!!!! Will have to vacuum this afternoon now.

I never go away from my car with the top down.....Not very smart!

I work on a very small military installation, no security issues. In town I barely even want to park anywhere!

We all learn some lessons the hard way. My strong advise is do not spray anything in you car that will kill bugs. It will always have the smell. I have never done that but know someone that did.

Why? Do you live in a rough neighborhood?

Today I put the seat and left side carpet back in.

A few days ago my 01 was making a strange clicking noise as I walked by. It turned out that the drain on the left side of the top had clogged and there was an inch of water under the driver's seat, shorting the central locking unit (immobilizer box).

Drying the circuit board in a bag with a desiccant after cleaning with alcohol.


Left side carpet propped up for two days with a fan.


Good as new now, or at least good as it was before as a previous flood salvage car.
