  1. Here is a picture of my new amp. I'll see if the dealer will let me use his removal tool. Where did you get your Sir Tools? Removing the pins will be easier than buying new ones, cutting and re-crimping, etc.
  2. OK, thanks to both of you, p.viby and tool pants. I now have my 6x40 amp installed, and it is working, better than my 4x40. Now I have fader control over the front speakers vs. the door speakers (fader did not work on 4x40). I still don't have sound to my newly installed rear speakers, but I'm not surprised after looking at the information tool pants sent regarding the rear speaker connections. Originally, I inserted the pins for the rear speakers into the connector according to the instructions given by PnP (the rear speakers I installed), but these instructions were for a M490 in a MY 2003/4 Boxster - they said to use connections 3, 12 and 4,13. So, I will go to the dealer and get some of the round pins, as I don't have the extraction tool necessary to remove the ones I have already installed. Once I connect according to the instructions given by tool pants (5,15 and 6,16), I will let you know what happens. I appreciate the help both of you have given.
  3. OK, the blue connector is the one that doesn't fit. On the existing 4x40 amp, the connector is black. All of the electrical pins line up perfectly and the connector on my wiring harness would fit except that the key tabs (seen in the pictures as one on the bottom middle-left and two on the top middle-right and right) are in different places on the blue connector than on the black connector. I could cut the key tabs off with an exacto knife, and then the connector on my wiring harness would fit, but I don't want to fry the electronics if the pinouts are not the same. I'm looking for some schematics showing both amplifiers so I can verify pinouts. Thanks.
  4. I have a 2000 Boxster with the 4x40 Haes amp, and I just bought the 996 6x40 amp. I expected it to just plug right in, but the signal connector (large one) is keyed differently. Could somebody send me a pinout of the 6x40 amp so I can determine if the pinout is the same as on the 4x40. (I just bought rear speakers and would like to hook them up).
