2nd the rhino ramps

I just picked up a set last week - very handy. I use them for my riding mower as well. And "B" wrench at autozone works very well just don't expect them to know what you are looking for. I just got blank stares and had to find them myself.

Why is the Porsche filter so retro?

The last time I had a filter like the one on the boxster was when I had a Morris Minor station wagon in the 60's. Why does Porsche still use this method? Spin on filters have been with us in this country (USA) for 40 years or more is this true of Europe?

Thanks!!

Thank you all for the tips. After searching the archives, I am going to buy the Rite Fit A251 at Pep Boys. It seems other forum members have had good luck with that oil filter wrench.
