Hi,
I installed an aftermarket (robbins or sierra - can't remember)
I had to access the top of the engine the other day to check the PS fluid... I was getting a bit of a groan doing parking lot full lock maneuvers. I ended up having to add about 1-2 oz of PS fluid to the reservoir for it to read on the cold line (engine was cold).
Anyhoo... the glass window does limit access on the 99-02 models. I did bungee the back up, but I think I'll need to remove the clamshell if I'm doing any extended work in there.

... you're able to get the glass to fold.
That's one of four reasons I don't like the aftermarket glass on pre 2003 986s.
The other three are higher cost, less visibility and more weight.
Happy Boxstering,
