I may have to do mine . Its firm while I am turning it . Thinking removing the driver seat may give me more room and be easier on my back . I would try and leave corner air duct in place. We'll see
Rick – thanks a TON for your well executed video on how to replace a faulty ignition switch module on my 2001 996. You saved me an incredible amount of diagnosis and learning (trial and error) time; I am very grateful to you! Regards…Tom
well done video
Good video Rick & thanks for sharing your DIY fix; I already have my spare ignition switch ready in case my '00 996 cab switch fails as well, but so far so good. Thanks again! Cheers…
Hi Rick, thanks for the video. You mentioned twice that you had watched a DYI video. Don't you mean DIY (do-it-yourself)? Anyway, such a minor criticism. Cheers Peter
