For 997 / 987 .
Remove battery leads and clamp and slide the battery to the o/s .
Long screwdriver and push the red tab down about 3-4 mm .
Move the battery lead whilst useing a screwdriver to move it outwards and off of the pin , depending on just how corroded it is will depend on the size of screwdriver and working upto lever bars that will be needed.
Undo the x2 13 mm nuts .
Inside the car and i was lucky here , Targa/cab can have the bose speaker in the n/s/f footwell .. removeing this makes life a lot easier .
The Power box is fitted behind the heater box which in turn cant be removed unless the dash is out .. we have to struggle a bit to get it out.
If possible raise the carpet to give a little more clerance .. its more of a struggle if you cant do this .
The box has to be slide sideways behind the a/c drain .. its tight here .. you can remove the tube if it helps .. i didnt here as i had enough room.
The box wont come all the way out , cover is clipped in place at both top corners and you cut the green tape , lid is on pivots , you dont need to remove it .
Undo the 13mm nut and tap the thread , back of a screwdriver is plenty enough and it will fall out .
The new pin will then just push in .
Reassemble in reverse but make sure you have it to the o/s beind the a/c drain as this is the only place you will be able to get it above the bar in the picture .. pin and fixings hit it.
New pin is now a bolt and the lead will bolt onto it .
The old lead has a single wire attached , you cut this and either clamp the new wire to it or you use the supplyed lead which runs to the abs cu .. this isnt easy as you have to somehow get it through the bulkhead .. old wire is inside the harness.
i just cut the old lead and crimp on the new one .
