What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

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.

No I drove around till the were all dead or blown out of the car! Haha. Weird in the middle of a parkinglot they either have good taste in vehicles or like the dark color.

I only use chemical guys leather treatment products. Maybe the scent.

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.

Nice job!! Another option i have used on cell phones is putting them into a bag of rice, it pulls out the moisture.
