  • Definitely bad product

Perfect fit for 996 or 986

After buying and returning 2 other racks, finally got a set that is actually the right size to fit my 996. This is an exact replacement for the factory luggage racks. Easy to swap out and works great. I tried 2 others which helped, they were correct but not. From a functional point of view there is really no difference other than the size in all the shelves for sale.

Cons
  • Good but not great

One only lasted 3 months

These parts appear to be for sale. I installed mine in January 2018 and in April of this year one of them was out of service. My original devices lasted 17 years. So I went back and got the blocks from Stabilus, the OEM. As far as I know Boxi would replace a broken shock absorber under warranty but the real question is how can a shock absorber fail in less than 3 months of light use? There is simply no quality control.

Close to perfection at the moment!

It took five minutes to remove the two existing racks and the new Boxi racks were installed in fifty seconds. The new support legs work great and are very strong. I really wish the new struts would stand the test of time after getting tired of being hit in the head and having the front hood swollen many times due to the original struts being poorly designed. The instructions in the kit are not very well written and difficult to understand which is the only reason not to give it five stars.

Cons
  • So far so good

They work! Good value for money

Compared to a Porsche OEM product and therefore "Porsche Tax" they work and fit exactly the same but a fraction less. They are probably made on the same production line. There is nothing wrong with this product, but the locking system that Porsche chose as the best option for attachment to the hood hinge and frame is a terrible system. You have a 50/50 chance of not damaging the flimsy tin bar when removing it, and bending it back into shape never works. Just take your time and be careful when…

Cons
  • Transparency

It took about five minutes for each side.

Easy replacement in 5 minutes. I wonder why I didn't do this sooner. There are plenty of tutorial videos online, but the short version requires a small screwdriver to remove the locking clip and the new posts snap straight into place with the new clips. If you look at the new post you can see how the clamp is in place. Rotating the ball stand slightly will raise the clamp just enough for a small screwdriver to fit. A standard 5 gallon water bottle is just about right to support the weight of…

Cons
  • Minor problems

Happy with the purchase

They were installed on a 2000 Porsche Boxster. Installation is easy, but you should see if you can find a plastic wedge or other tool to pry up the old posts. My struts have lost charge over the years and won't hold the hood open in cold weather. The only downside to this replacement is that you risk scratching the inside of the hood or trunk if you use a flathead screwdriver to pry out the old struts (which I did). I swapped out both the front and rear at the same time and each took less than…

Cons
  • Long delivery time
