First post here, but this seems to be great resource for Boxsters. I have a silver 2005 987.1 that I bought about 2 months ago. It had the usual problem with part of the top not fitting into the roof channel which I fixed with the aid of some the posts from this site.
It also had another issue with the nylon ball joints that operate the arms and as part of replacing them with the metal ones I also found that one of the elastic cords had got caught around the nylon ball joint and this possibly contributed to the demise of the nylon ball joint.
Anyhow, the attached photo shows one of the elastic cords (there is one detached on each side), as well as another grey
VB cord that has a metal fastening on the end. Both of these are at the very bottom of the roof when raised.
Despite a search on the internet I cannot find any information on these two cords, nor a diagram that may show where they would be affixed. As mentioned, they are not the usual suspects that are associated with the roof channel. Once raised, the roof seems to fit perfectly.
Any idea what they will be fastened to?
