Dead battery / front trunk emergency cable

I hardly drive the Boxster anymore, maybe put 500 km a year on it now. Well I went to try start it to hook up my tender. Battery was so dead the window would not drop 😬

Went to hook power to the fuse box and the alarm went off non stop even with the fuse pulled. Next step was to do the emergency release cable… well I was not about to spend the time to remove the wheel and the fender lining to get to it. I remembered reading how easy it was to steal this style headlight, got a trim pry tool and wiggled it under the headlight and it popped out within seconds and the emergancy cable was just laying there ready.



So if anybody runs into the same issue just pop out your passenger side headlight to get to the release cable easy 😅
