If you have the 996 cluster, you do not need to enable the voltage and oil pressure gauges, as they already are. While the circuit boards themselves are the same between 986 and 996, there are...

Actually, you CAN install a 996 engine in a '03 or '04 Boxster with ME 7.8. You just need to add the wires to the harness for the additional cam adjuster actuators. After that, you simplify flash...

My guess is that there is a relay problem in the alarm/immo module, but this exact failure is not common. I would check to see if there was any apparent water intrusion in the alarm/immo module, but...

I do not have new LCDs for the late clusters, and I don't think they are available separately like the early ones are. If you are not in a hurry, you can usually find a used Boxster cluster that is...

In my experience, getting the needles off without popping the gears out of place inside the gauge motor is more difficult than getting the needles on correctly. If you are careful and mark where...

The grills are there to make it look like the engine compartment cooling grills on a 356. Definitely not my cup of tea, but some people seem to like it as I have seen it more than once now.

Just a clarification when it comes to "compatibility". What Woody is talking about is if you just want to get a car running, not have remote functionality, etc. The connectors are the same and the...

I had to break in to mine once. I bent a piece of .100" rod into an arc with a 90° bend at the end. I carefully slid it between the glass and seal at the top rear on the driver side. I then hooked...

Absolutely clickbait. I wonder what country they are in? Ford Ka? Not American and never available in America. In fact, I don't think any of them were designed in America eiher.

Well, for that car does NOT make a case for round Porsche headlights on the Boxster. Yikes. I don't get the fake engine grill on the trunk either.
