Kevin,

Thanks for the Renntech post - I think that is all I need to get the 2003 top liner attached (and for it to stop raining)! Question - did you have to rewire your micro switches to add the updated top? I rewired my car so it no longer uses the micro switch on the b-pillar and convertible top motor - and now uses the micro switch in the convertible top transmission and the newer solenoid. Everything works as expected and no dash light when the top is fully up or fully down but when I lock the car I get a single horn beep indicating something is open. It happened at the same time as when I rewired the micro switch so I'm guessing it is related. Any thoughts?

Thanks again!

Hi Kevin. I found your post regarding a side glass swap. I also purchased a 987 complete top with frame and glass (by mistake) and it did not fit my 2000 986. Will swapping the glass in from a 2005 to 2012 allow me to use my new top?

Hi Kevin. Did you ever do a 997 seat swap into your 986.? Looking to install full power 997 seats in my 2000 986 and cant find info on bypassing drivers seat memory. Thanks Dave

Happy New Year! I have my rear suspension rebuilt! About the only thing I did not replace was the outer CV joints. You have to replace the complete axle at $700 each! Moving on to the front. Hopefully it will be a little easier!

Hi Kevin, do you have a bin file for an early 996 manual with OBC? I just did a 996 gauge swap into a 986 but I need the right Bin file to get OBC working. Thanks.

To be honest, I made myself a promise I would do as much of the work as I could because at $150 Hour I cant afford to pay someone. I am quite handy and honestly I haven't been very impressed with the "experts" ability to diagnose and fix the car and they have the "machine" to help them. If I am going to pay through the nose I expect the "experts" to do a better job than me and know more than me. I have found more knowledge trolling this and other forums and talking to enthusiasts like you!

Hey no guts no glory! LOL!

Hi Kevin, Have you replaced inner cv joint? I have a 99 and my right inner cv joint is toast. I am considering replacing it without removing the axle. I am thinking that if I remove the bolts holding the joint to the transmission then the circlip then the joint should slide off?
