serpentine belt is easy too. Might want to do that if your 99 still on the original.

I'd have to agree... Boxsters come apart and go together like the old Snap-Tite models when I was a kid, but the parts are much more expen$ive for these cars than most other cars I've owned previously.
I DIY as much as I can on my Boxster. I left CV boots for my indie because I would have had to buy $150 worth of tools first and spend a whole day or more getting greasy. I just wanted it out of winter hibernation and fixed ASAP so I could drive it!

Then entire engine was replaced at 37.5k in 2008 with a Porsche factory rebuilt to original 2.5l specs. I'm at 90.5k now in 2015.
