Yeah. Even JiffyLube would do it-I used to work there. I have always used Pennzoil in the past since it is cheap.

I don't believe in only going for a certain brand. If its 0w-40 or 5w-40, brand doesn't matter.

I had my plastic rear window repaired a few years back, it cost about $300 if I remember correctly, and it still looks great. My top is still in great shape so I just replaced the window. 2001 Boxster with 107,000 on the dash....

For those of you that have replaced the plastic window, did you have to remove the top from the frame to have the window replaced?
