If you PM him, he might be able to give some advice. He truly knows the tops inside out, and I couldn't have done the swap without his know how.

Mike, you have stuck around these Boxster forums (a good thing) long after you've sold your last Boxster. You must miss the car...when you getting another?
No it says if you keep old mechanicals you need to figure out B-Pillar switch.

I know. What I was trying to say was that he decided not to go that route (keep the old mechanicals), and to instead upgrade all the pieces to make his earlier model Boxster have the same mechanicals as the 00-02 Boxster. Thus, he didn't need to figure out the B-pillar switch timing part of the conversation. He can explain better than me though.
