Hi, My 01 Boxster has been sitting up for about the last 6 weeks so when I go to start it and Battery is dead, I read a few post on here that said follow the basic steps for giving my car a jump, however the last part of the basic steps include touching the negative jumper cable to the engine block or frame. So what do I do with the negative cable since the engine is behind the front seats???? Can anyone tell me where to stick the negative jumper cable so that I can jump my car?
