A novice home mechanic can change all 4 corners with new pads in about an 60 to 90 minutes, its probably the easiest job you could do on a Boxster.

Tools needed: Porsche Jack and lug nut wrench located in your spare tire area, Plus some needle nose pliers to remove the sensors and 1 retaining pin.


Replacing with OEM Pads from Pelican would cost under $400 plus 1 hour or less for a skilled mechanic at $100/hr, so I figure the price is inflated by $2500 or more.

Another dealer that overcharges, has no respect for customers and takes us for fools.

We need a Name/location of that place to add to the list.
