Great job as always on this install. Love that the Cayman is getting some more love to keep it going.

[@JohnEngel]

It’s crazy how much I am loving this car.

[@ManasShirgaokar]

Was the wrench used with another extension or by itself? It doesn’t seem long enough to reach that bolt by itself. Thanks for putting the video together.

My 06 Cayman starter was slow to disengage also. Part arrived, but waiting on that ratchet wrench you recommended for bolt access. Thanks. Just installed LED tailights, looks sweet.

[@JohnEngel]

Thank you so much for watching. That wrench will come in very handy.

Great question. The wrench was used by it self.

[@ManasShirgaokar]

@@JohnEngel Thanks for the response. Couldn’t get a proper reach in my case so I threw in the towel and went in through the front.

[@JohnEngel]

@@ManasShirgaokar it’s tight for sure.
