Re: When you sold your Boxster, did you include the "hack"?
the shark top device allowed for "one touch" operation but it didn't override the need to be stopped with the handbrake on as far as i can recall. those two hacks were done separately.
yes, i did include the shark top but the guy who bought the car from me took it out after a while as it started to misbehave and operate the top on its own free will.
this is all water under the bridge though as this year will mark the 10th anniversary of having sold "frogster." i can't believe it. a lot of good times driving that car through the alps, spain, france, italy, and of course germany.

edit to add: tony, you have a great memory. that must be at least 17 years ago that you sent me that shark top.
