I can see why you are shocked. Sorry, bad typing skills from mobile device... My reference of post disappearing is in regards to 986forum's hidden commercial interest as many do not know it's owned by Wayne/Pelican Parts the seller. I wanted to highlight why I thought that post too would vanish and in doing so re-included (not really a word, I know) reference to post twice - inside AND outby Burg Boxster - Main Forum
Interesting little thread over on 986forum right now about a pretty technical member named ghost who vanished overnight b/c of his post regarding a certain aftermarket 'panacea' too many m96/m97 members have fallen prey to. Here's a quick copy of the most recent post regarding his disappearance as I'm sure it will be gone soon (as may this post due to commercial interests involved).

assuming 991 is any indication, it ain't gonna be as easy; 991 requires rear bumper removal for air filter change. Oil change requires top fan panel removal from what I understand but otherwise not much different (it no does NOT require bumper removal as widely rumored for oil change). Interestingly enough, I also understand the PIWIS system has been replaced. I'm going to a 981 drive event toby Burg Boxster - Main Forum

you want to buy the installer more than the film. Price sounds high but I don't know your market, type of film being quoted and all the coverage. Right now, IMNSHO, best film out there is Expel 10yr guarantee / self healing stuff. Crystal clear when installed properly (after it dries for a day or two and has the initial chemical burn-off depending on car color). Basically you care for filmby Burg Boxster - Main Forum
Obviously we all know V1 is the best detector out there but it's even better w/ their newer, albeit w/ a decent premium, Savvy unit. https://store.valentine1.com/Store/images/products/20220.gif The Savvy plugs into your OBDII port to get power (obviously tapping into a switched wire or fuse panel isn't hard) but cool part of Savvy is how it automatically mutes on signals below XX (aby Burg Boxster - Main Forum
after 11/12 years, the lifter shocks are likely shot. Though it may only be one, might as well replace both at once (i.e. headlights, etc.). Most local parts stores carry suitable replacements.

Gives you head unit control of iPhone, better sound quality, charging and Bluetooth option you can add. Same price range. Very easy install if you do all in frunk, otherwise most is installed in frunk and then just run one cable to cabin for i(whatever) hookup. Eric at b-plugs sells them. There are some others options too but don't recall names.by Burg Boxster - Main Forum

for a '99 E6 fuse does not apply and their is no solenoid in fender (no carbon cannister - intro'd in '00 IIRC) at least in the Boxster but should be same in 996.

Nice pix. Looks like attendance has grown nicely last I was there. Glad you had a nice time and thanks for sharing.

Have you been before? Look forward to your report b/c last time I was there it was more than "light" on newer... and that's when Stoddard still had the franchise. A few nice 356s and lots of 356 parts. Have fun!by Burg Boxster - Events

I can say w/o a doubt the process is definitely easier/simpler in 9x6 series. There are many more hidden screws and layers involved w/ rear console removal in 9x7s than on previous generations. Neither though is overly tasking... just use the nice write up by lithium (if 9x7) or B&M one if 9x6. Take your time w/ disassembly (organizing screws/trim pieces/etc.) and don't force anything.
