Porsche Boxter 986 Tool Kit Alternative

[Nine8Six]

Those are the dim for the porsche tool. Your local Car Dismantler occasionally hides a lot of surprises, check if they have a 986/996 in their inventory, never know!

[Metric/millimetres] 200mm long tool although I doubt you need much more than 80~100mm

And the tool w/ handle itself. Apologies for the lack of passion for photography, promise to fix that problem one day lol

Good luck with the headlights, and finding or making a tool that fits

Where can I purchase this tool from?

Not entirely convinced you can buy that tool individually, although quite a few tool'kit' are available that included the tool you are after. example:

Porsche 986 Boxster Tool Kit, 7 Pieces + Gloves & Vinyl Bag - Los Angeles Dismantler - Used Porsche Parts for 911 Boxster Cayman Turbo

Have you called your local Porsche Service Manager and ask him/her if he can spare you one? I'm sure they have tons of those around their shop. Politely asked yadayada, try?
Your local Porsche independent is also a good place to check (independent = unofficial mechanic specializing in Pcar)

True. I'll try contacting a few in my area. Hopefully they will sell me the tool at a reasonable price

5 mm nut driver. Available at any hardware store. My headlight tool cracked at one of the flanges, and needed be replaced. Works well.
