Boxster Hubs

I've done the obligatory search but haven't found a certain answer to the question of whether or not Boxster hubs (986) are interchangeable with 914s. Anyone? I have all of the parts to check this myself but I'm too lazy to take everything apart without knowing beforehand.

I find it veeeeery hard to believe that people have better things to do on pleasantly sunny, 70 degree weekends than sit at the computer and answer my ridiculous questions!

The boxster wheel bearings are the same as the 914 wheel bearings which leads me to believe that the hubs *might* work.

Never seen it done ...

Thanks for the insight. It wasn't my idea but it looks like I'm a guinea pig now . . .
