    Yes.

    They only come in black. You would have to have an upholstery shop cover it in leather.
  3. Loren
    For a MY99 Boxster.. Same wheel bearing for both. 999.053.041.03 front and rear wheel bearing
  4. Loren
    A number of folks really like the silver crest. You might try listing your airbag cover (including leather color) in the For Sale - Trade section. Someone will likely be willing to trade.

    According to the service manual - no. The parts that need to occur first are: "- Remove refrigerant by suction. -> Page 144 'Adding refrigerant and removing by suction' - Remove front cover for underbody. Refer to No. 519019, Group 5 Removing and installing cover for underbody - Remove cross member. Refer to No. 503819, Group 5 Removing and installing cross member"

    Total 911 Magazine just announced a new "Digitial Edition". We hope to have a discount available to RennTech.org members soon. Here is the press release...

    You will need to get a cable from your software manufacturer.
  9. Loren
    Both cam sensors bad - I would say that is highly unlikely. What code(s) are you getting?
  10. Loren
    The cables you need will be dependent on the options already on your car. The same is true for CD/DVDs. Depending on the hardware version and current firmware in your PCM - those will dictate which NAV CDs or DVDs you need.

    997.553.455.01.A03 cover - parking brake
  12. Loren
    Tiptronic or 5 speed or 6 speed? 997.553.241.02.A03 Tiptronic shift gate cover 997.553.243.01.A03 5-speed/6-speed shift gate cover

    On the later model cars (MY01 and newer) there are actually 3 releases. The electronic one in the car. A US law mandated release inside the trunk (in case someone got trapped in there). And, the emergency mechanical latch release. If you are lucky you can hook the cable without removing the liner. Some folks re-route the emergency release to behind the tow hook plug in the front bumper - that way it's easier to get to (if you need to).

    :thumbup:
  15. Loren
    There is a an emergency release cable behind the right front wheel well liner.

    Have your dealer check his TSBs - there should be at least one firmware upgrade (if not more) that needs to be done with their PIWIS tester.
  17. Loren
    What the dealer did was to deactivate the airbag on that side. If you remove the bar you may get an airbag light since the airbag is not functioning on that side. Just have your dealer or any shop with a PST2 or PIWIS tester change the setting. It is a 5 minute job.
  18. Loren
    Try 8943
  19. Loren
    That tool might work fine - I would just make sure it won't scratch the calipers. (I must be lazy and cheap - I just push the pistons back using the old pads - :lol: )
  20. Loren
    Here are a couple of different angles. The one highlighted in yellow should help.
  21. Loren
    On the 987 there are two microswitches for the brake function - one on the brake pedal and one on the clutch pedal. There is a separate microswitch for on the clutch pedal for the starter interlock. The clutch interlock now goes through the cluster (instead of the DME like the 9x6 series) - so I do not know if it would affect the cruise control or not. Should be simple enough to test though.
  22. Loren
    Unless you are having alarm problems I would have them reset and see if any come back. At this time the Durametric Software can not reset alarm faults - you will need someone with a PST2 or PIWIS tester. Some of those can be caused by trying to lock the doors with them open or any movement sensed in the interior during arming. In most cases these are arming errors - not really system faults.
  23. Loren
    Should be D3 (fourth row from the top - third fuse from the left). It should be 30A.
  24. Loren
    Yes, you can email Sunset. It might be a special order as this was an Exclusive option. I still think it is best if you can find your option numbers - to be sure you have the right color.
  25. Loren
    My best guess is "dark maple rootwood". It would be best if you checked your original option list (under the front trunk lid or in your maintenace handbook). 996.552.989.03.M31 defroster trim - dark maple root and Boxster Red leather -- MSRP $436.94 (try Sunset Imports - Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost for a much better price).
