Also, it seems as though these clips are secured through the back of the panel, so any tips on replacing these would be extremely helpful.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey folks, Glad I found this forum. I just purchased my first ever Porsche, an 06 Colbalt blue Boxster and I have some item that I’d like to address. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 1. The 2 clips in the front trunk that holdS back the panel that contains the small compressor, Container of liquid, toolkit etc are broken. Actually one clip is totally missing and the other is broken off so there is only a plastic peg sticking out of where the clip would normally be. Does anyone know where these clips/fasteners/holders can be purchased or an aftermarket solution. Also, it seems as though these clips are secured through the back of the panel, so any tips on replacing these would be extremely helpful. 2. The trunk opener (by the side of the drivers seat) does not open the front trunk, only the rear. I think that the previous owner pulled too hard and it broke or something, cause it doesn’t “feel” the same as the rear trunk release. Any info on this part or repair instructions? 3. In the trunk, there is a DVD player that’s says “Porsche Navigatiom”, but the previous owner put an aftermarket kenwood stereo in it. Was this vehicle originally equipped with Nav given the DVD player in the front trunk? Thanks in advance for your help.
