    Aaron knows his shift...lol. He’s a good friend of mine and when I text him how to remove it, I decided to check out his Help Me DIY video channel and behold he’s made a video for everything.

    Thanks for this video. I’ve been watching a lot of them recently do spruce up my 986! I just replaced my boot and it looks much better. Now it made the knob look like it needs replaced too LOL. I’ll do that soon… :)

    I installed a short shifter on the 03 S. I like the more precise feel.

      Also I have a steering wheel and air bag replacement, if I replace the locked with the new.. will it be unlocked?

    The immobilizer I buy has to be from a 99 like mine, not an automatic like mine, I believe the computer works fine all I need to do is remove the ignition cylinder or driver's side key cylinder and send to diagnostics ? Or go to Walmart and get keys made?

    Hi, do you have any info on how to crank the upper seat back when the electric lever is not working on the driver seat? I already detached and attached the cable and check the fuse but nothing…

      +Jus Swagg TV hmm sorry I don’t know of any sort of manual override. But if you find something let us know!

    I got my 99 986 without a key and immobilizer is missing, so I buy a new immobilizer and remove either driver's side door cylinder or ignition and send somewhere to get a new key fob?? Also steering wheel locked help
