The one I've got is working great. I use Waze and Spotify without issues. The 4G/LTE connection is reasonably fast (here in Sweden) and it's very responsive. I'm honestly not quite sure it acutally...

Question about 3.4 swap

I have a base Boxster -99 with the 2.5 litre engine and manual gearbox and although it's great fun to drive, I can't help but thinking that it would be absolutely perfect with around 100 more hp. I...

Today I rerouted the seat belt through the hole on the side. I've found a "Seat Belt Buckle Extension" for older Porsches, that I think will do the job. Only €75 including shipping and VAT... :D...

Side mirror number of pins?

Hi,
My right hand side mirror was recently vandalized, and I discovered that there seems to be two different connectors. One 5-pin and one 10-pin. Does anybody know the difference between the two?

I had a soft top with a glass rear window installed on my -99. I don't mind the reduced visibility, since I use my outer rear view mirrors as well. No regrets!

The rev counter looks great, but I have to point out that it's whitegauges.net. If you go to whitegauges.com, you get a page full of malware. :/
