I'm not at my car right now, but I believe it's behind the lower carpeted panel in the front trunk. There are two plastic pins that hold the panel in and they're not easy to undo. And I think you're going to be underwhelmed when you do see the kit. Better get a magnifying glass. It's one of a few sad features in a car of this price.

Rail, did you lose the manual that came with your brand new Porsche? I'm willing to bet you that the location of the toolkit is plainly described within that wonderful and elusive book!

If you can't find it, look on the top of your toilet tank. That's where I keep mine for library reading.

Thanks Randall, I know I can always count on you for your help. I did pull out the owners manual, however, I had a piece of carpet hanging down in front of the "Giant Toothbrush Holder" so I guess I missed it. Thanks for the help guys.

Being 52, all this talk about missing tools and magnifying glasses is somewhat disconcerting... where did I put those Blue Pills...??

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Hi,

Nope, she's in Dearborn, MI doing the FORD SENIOR PGA PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP, won't be home until next Tues., but we're planning on doing the Mississippi River Run together the following weekend in the Boxster and checking out some great views, nice B&Bs and copius amounts of good food and wine. Then she's off again to Akron for the NEC Invitational Golf Tournament. To paraphrase the Mastercard commercial - "Wife who loves her job... PRICELESS!!"

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Rail, now my interest is piqued. I really need you or someone esle on the board with a fancy new Boxster to photograph and post that giant toothbrush holder with all its contents so I can have a look at it.

Whoa, I remember playing this game in prison once..."show me yours and I'll show you mine" never works out that well.

Just kidding...I will get a picture posted as long as you don't use big words like "piqued".
