I swapped my cracked plastic window top for a new one with a glass window on the same frame. The rear window is significantly smaller which affects rear visibility a bit, but now I know it won't...

Well... This might be boring, but it's my last name.
I'm Swedish, and Fridsten is indeed a Swedish name, but there's only around 40 of us (31 adults, as far as I know), so it's pretty rare.

In my experience, most of the guys - because it's always guys - who hate on the Boxster, call it "not a real Porsche" and so on, very rarely own a Porsche themselves.
In Porsche Club Sweden, I've...

A 2000 Audi A4 1.8. Four cylinder 20 valve engine without turbo. 125 bhp, so it was slow, but at least it was thirsty. Back seat was quite uncomfortable on long trips. Sure it was reliable, but also...

Well, someone removed your factory amplifier, for a start. Considering your model year, it should probably be a HAES 4x40, unless you have the rear speakers. Looks to me like the original wiring.

Agree on Particlewave! He helped me get a track decal shipped to Sweden, when the manufacturer wanted to charge ridiculously much.

I don't know. As I mentioned in the post, the car is 400 miles away, so it's not mounted yet. I will make sure to record the sound before and after, though. Updates will come, perhaps as soon as in...

Internal exhaust mod

As I mentioned in the Crios Mod thread, I had an idea on how to modify the stock muffler for more sound without any visible traces on the outside. Now it's done!

The idea was to do it like this:...

Since the front fenders, the front trunk lid and the doors are the same on both cars, I think it's only the upper part of the windshield that's different.

Putting a MY03 or newer dash in a MY02 or...

DEPO are really very good value for money. Can be tricky to mount, though, but worth the effort.

I have DEPO tail lights on mine as well. It's only the brake and fog lights that are LEDs. If you want a complete LED setup, you have to switch some bulbs as well. I did that, but unfortunately I...

Just make sure you get the strap for holding the top in place when in service position. It should be delivered with the top, but the shop might forget to hand it to you.

Inspired by the "What's your favorite mod?" thread, I thought it would be interesting to see all the things you've done to your cars.

New soft top with glass rear window - no more karate chop!
And Depo LED tail lights - they give the car a much more modern look.

Those two are my favourites. Especially the first one.
