Yes to both. Cost + shipping to 32011

Soft top frame?
 
Do you have the soft top frame?

Thanks, Bill

Yes I do. Not sure about shipping it. It’s kinda big and bulky.

Bill Ladd 10-12-2019 02:44 PM

What are the approximate dimensions all folded up? I don’t need the top, just the frame.

I’m out of town till Monday. When I get home I’ll measure it.

If I can figure out how to get the canvas off that would lower the weight as well.

I only need one part of the frame. I’m not sure yet what it’s called, I have a current thread here on the forum asking for feedback. Perhaps you could just strip that individual component off your frame once I figure out which piece I need?

Thanks, Bill

The frame is roughly 60”x24” about 25-30lbs.

Looks like I have to replace the entire frame. I’m looking local. If I don’t find what I need I will get back in touch.

Thanks for the effort, I appreciate it.

Roger that. I’ll have it for little bit more then it is going to the dump.

Does the ashtray stay closed and lock into place? Interested if so. Thanks.

I’ve got more parts off the car.


The entire AC system. (It was blowing super cold when I pulled it off)
Charcoal canister.
Hvac system.

Interested in the shifter boot if it’s not all dried out. Also do you have the little flip covers for the sun visor mirrors?
Thanks!

If you can tell me how to get the shift boot off without destroying it you can have it.

I do have the little flip covers on the visors but they didn't stay snapped shut.

Haha, I don’t have a clue! I’m new to boxsters and to the forum as I just got a ‘97. I’m just looking for bits to complete mine and hoped I could figure it out...

Actually looks very easy. 4 clips at the corners of the boot that “pop” off. Put the shifter in fourth gear and the shift knob and boot just pull straight up and off!

I’ve got to say that so far, any question I’ve had about my boxster has been quickly solved by you guys or by YouTube. I love it!

Ok, that looks easy enough to get off. I need to keep the knob, but if the boot is in good enough condition for you can have it with the sun visors. $25 total plus shipping. I'll post a picture tomorrow.

I tried today to get the shifter off and I can't get it off. I pulled pretty hard and was afraid I'd break something. So I'm just going to cut it off.

Sorry :(
