The glass rear window came in '03.

All Boxster S's have the larger 996 brakes, so yes it has those as well.

I thought about waiting and getting them to convert an '03 for me (also has the glove box), but I just couldn't wait.

And Hey! No looking forward to the newer car! I just got this one.

For clear turn sginals, you get a clear cover and use an orange bulb? What is the best source for these?

Also, who has a good source for lits?

That looks just like mine, but isn't it. It has the clear turn signals in front, and mine was just finished last week.

After looking at the one in PR, I'm kinda diggin' the original orange signals. It gives the car some contrast and color. My $.02.

With the '02 S, you simply told them which options you wanted. I had assumed it was an all or nothing conversion with these 3400, 3600 cars. ???

oo i like the 3600s with the cgt exhaust option. and the mk2 headlights are awesome when on the mk2 rturbo ruf bumper. adrift, your rgt kit looks fantastic as well.

Looks MUCH better with the orange turn signals gone. I change out the headlights of my 99 996 just to get rid of those.

BTW Hill, will you be going to the DE at MSR on June 25th?
