I've just got my first 944 and love it. Its a 92 S2 in Glacier Blue/Cobalt, completely original with FSH and 63k miles. I also have an original Guards Red 88 Carrera 3.2 Sport, but am completely new to the world of 944s, so would appreciate any help and advice to make sure the car is as good as it can be.

- I am going to remove the rear spoilers, clean them and replace some of the fittings - is there a best place to purchase the tool for removing the slotted nuts or a work around?
- In the rear wheel arch next to the battery, there is an electrical connector that has been disconnected to a small black box (I can post photos). Not sure whether this is linked to alarm sensors? The door lock buttons flash and fuses are fine, so I assume all is OK. But I would like to solve the mystery, if possible. I also have a switch and red bulb on the passenger side of the centre console, that does not work, and which also may be linked.
- The boot cover is not the cassette type but pulls over on elastic clips. It is black not cobalt blue, so I assume it is aftermarket. Should this car have the cassette version? Can you get these?
- The front fog/main beam units are starting to rust a little on the reflectors. Can this be rectified, as the units are expensive to replace.
- Which is the best workshop manual to buy?
