Boxster clear lense (Rear lights)
Discussion
Hi,
I wonder if anyone could give me their advice please.
Does anyone know how to fit clear lenses to a Boxster 3.2S. By my own admission I am utterly useless with anything mechanical or matters of this kind. I am considering buying some velcro shoes!
The chap I bought them from said they are very easy to fit and I have seen a couple of you guy's on here saying the same.
Can anyone give me the beneift of your knowledge. I would be really grateful.
On another note, I also have a slight ticking noise coming from the engine on idle. Any thoughts?
Thank you very much.

I think it's the same process that Boxster 2.5 owners use except that you have to torque the nuts up to 98ft/lbs on the S.
Sorry! Just kidding!
It's a very easy job. Just open the rear trunk and remove the two plastic nuts that hold the small pieces of carpet in place behind each light assembly. This part is in the manual as you need to be able to do that to change a bulb.
When you get the carpet out of the way, you should then see the metal nuts that hold the light units in place.
From memory, I think all the nuts are 10mm (both the plastic carpet nuts and the metal ones that fix the light assemblies to the body but you should be able to do the job with an el-cheapo adjustable spanner. Just try not to let the nuts drop down inside the body!
