  1. I believe it is on the back of the radio chassis.
  2. Is there no credit card sized plastic card in with your owners manual packet? Gonna be a great day for a ride today! :)
  3. Hey... I wonder if anyone can give me a bit of insite here..possibly some diagrams? Last week, I went to take my car for one of the last few drives of the year. When I got to where I was going, I got out of the car without turning off the engine (letting the car warm up). After about 10 minutes, I reached into the open window and shut off the engine. Problem was that the key felt hard to turn. No overly so, but kind of like the feeling when you need to give the wheel a little jostle before you remove the key. I kept turning, the car shut off, but the key wanted to spring back to the on position. Keeping a small bit of pressure on the key, I removed it in the proper position. Problem is the steering column did not lock, and I could not get the key back in. After a few minutes, never forcing, I was able to get the key back in and restart the car. I drove it home, and tried again, with the same result, the steering wheel never locks with the key out, and the key feels messed. Pull out the key, and it is really tough to get back in. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd really appreciate one. Boxster S 2001 Manual US. Thank you.
  4. I totally agree with MN Boxster. I have no decrease in gas mileage.
  5. The descriptions in this link are great! http://www.ecoutez.net/boxster/door-panel-removal/
  6. Pay careful attention to the section about pushing the grill IN to release the clips. I think it is the best way. The force required is more than you feel you should give it....but only just. When reinstalling the cowl be sure to get the bottom front to engage the groove by pushing back and up as you reinstall. If you get all done, and find that the cowling is able to be pulled out on the bottom you have not engaged the groove.
  7. Actually I removed 1 and 13. There is still no way for engine compartment air to enter. It is sealed. (I just took mine apart again to check for sure)
  8. Having de-snorkeled, and seen what the inside looks like, I would really like to know the rationale of saying that your intake temps would be higher. The same air is coming from the same place... outside of your car. Removing the snorkel does nothing to alter this. Thanks from Connecticut
