1999 Boxster Rear Window Defogger


Recommended Posts

I own a 1999 Boxster which has a new roof installed with glass window. Anyone know how to install wiring for defogger. There is a switch on the dash to turn it on but no wiring harness.

Perhaps someone has MCIvered theirs to get it to work.

AFAIK, there all Boxsters came pre-wired for the rear window defroster. This is because the removable hardtop was offered as an option and it had to have a defroster.

Take a look at the area where the driver's side rollbar, where it meets the carpeting that surrounds the engine cover, all the way to the outboard wide of the rollbar. You should find what looks like a small black plastic box with a hinged tab on it. Pull up on the hinged cover and you will expose the connector into which you can plug in the wiring from your glass-windowed top.

Here is a photo of what it looks like, circled in red:
