On my 2005 987, the starter bolts are Torx, I believe E14.
If you are working on a 987, I'd suggest checking that you have one. __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: Porsche Boxster Starter Replacement - 986 / 987 (1997-08) - Pelican Parts Technical Article |

What is the best strategy for the bottom torex nut?
Hi there, I wanted to ask if anyone has the experience to share of getting the lower torex nut out to replace the starter. I have tried a 1/2 and 3/8" socket with a universal joint but that didn't work. Then ordered and tried using a 450mm 1/2" extension though the interior access but that didn't work either (the bar would always come in too high). So I have just ordered a torex spanner set to try that. Any advise would be appreciated. It's driving me nuts!
 Thx
