Hood and trunk release needed
 
I have 1998 Boxster base. I need the Release lever for the Hood and Trunk. The tip of the hood release broke off and I would like to replace it before it cuts the tip of my finger off trying to open the hood. I can't find the actual name for this part so I haven't been able to find a new one. So if someone knows the name for this part or the oem number it would be most appreciated.

I'll take a guess on the name of the part. Hood release lever. Betcha Google reveals a ****************eload of results. :cheers:

Here's one https://www.ebay.com/p/1722234282

Thanks a Million
 
I would never had known to search for hood release mechanism with the first name of "Door Sill". Thanks again.

Seriously. I find Pelican's site particularly NOT useful when searching for items. Oftentimes I'll just throw out the name of what I believe to be the name of the pat followed by "Pelican Parts". That usually weeds out the other 12,376,396 disassociated parts.

You might try a few guys on this board for that part... or check Craigslist. Bet you could find it cheap and quick.

Kinda like my first wife. :cheers:

FHW,

If you still need one I've got it from a '98.

yes
 
Yes, I would love it, can you give me the details. I live in Salt Lake City and would gladly pay for shipping. What is your asking price?

Hudy 10-25-2021 12:29 PM

I'm out of town until Tuesday evening. When I get back I will locate it and make sure it's in good shape. If in good shape you can have it for $50 delivered.
