Porsche 986 Radiator Cleaning | Must-Do DIY Maintenance! -
Hello, Is anyone aware of a part which goes behind the headrests and acts as a rear parcel-shelf to cover the stowed soft-top when a hardtop roof is fitted? It just looks a bit strange to look behind and see the folded soft-top, I'd prefer it to be covered. Picture attached. Thanks

I've recently purchased a 1998 Porsche Boxster 986 and I find it a great drive however the stereo is a little lacking with only the speakers in the dash. I've upgrade the stereo but I would like to add additional speakers in both doors and in the rear speaker shelf. Forgive my ignorance but this is my first Porsche and all this is quite new to me. Firstly, with the door speakers, can anyone recommend the best option for speakers that would fit in the door? Also does Porsche offer a grill for these speakers or should I just use what's provided by the speaker? Secondly, I recently purchased a rear storage box to install the rear speaker kit. Can anyone recommend the speakers for this as well as the centre sub-woofer? Lastly, would it be worthwhile to purchase an Amp or would this just be overkill? Many thanks in advance. -
Hi My 02 Boxster does not have electronics in it. So I have been locking and unlocking the car manually. Is there a way I can replace the elctronics inside key or buy a new key that matches with the Car. Please point me in right direction.
