boxster tool kit?

[garyc]

should i be looking for one and if so what do they consist of?

 

[Ivor]

Yes, there is one. The tools are in a black plastic wallet kept inside the holder for the jack which is inside the spare wheel. From memory, there is the towing eye, a socket spanner and possibly a screwdriver or two. I've only seen it once so there are probably other bits and pieces as well.

thanx ivor.

Show me a picture of what you have and I will tell you if anything is missing.

 

[garyc]

thanx, you will have to give me your email, struggling to re-size pics.

 

[Tool Pants]

Here it is. There is a plastic bag for the wheel and rubber gloves in case you want to dispose of a body, but they are not in the pic.

cheers tool pants, what is the item between the towing eye and the spanner? thats what i don't have, is it an 5 or 6 mm allen key with a fancy handle? where can i get one!!

Its the headlight release lever, but an allen key is a better option

Except it is hollow...

(The tool being the "female" part).

It is a 5 mm six point socket. I seldom use it because it is made out of stamped metal and is not always a good fit on some cars when I ask the owner for the the tool that comes with their car. So I bring a normal 5 mm socket when I know we are going to be removing a head light.

 

[Tool Pants]

Then you just twist a normal 5 mm socket to unlock or lock the headlight.
