A Bentley Manual has 99% of what you need to maintain a 986. Also handy is the Pelican 101 projects book. I owned both but sold them along with my Boxster back in August.

I replaced my left side rad in 2018 due to a pinhole leak. Paid under 250 CDN from R O C K auto for a Behr rad delivered to my door. Relatively easy job. Drained and replaced coolant at the same time.

Be careful, the tabs holding them can easily break. The tabs can only be jimmied from behind and to do that you need to remove the bumper. Why do you want to remove them?

Car looks great. Not sure about the wing however. Interesting how the GT3 front bumper necessitated the 996 headlights but I like it!

Make it easy on yourself and drill an access hole to get at the drain plug instead of removing the plate. Many including myself have done it and even JFP has recommended in the past.
