This video covers how I repair the convertible roof alignment of a Porsche Boxster 987 (also applies to the 986). The video shows how the roof overhands part of the roof frame whereas the convertible roof should sit within the channel in the roof frame. The cause of the misalignment is worn elastic within the roof itself. To carry out the repair on the Porsche Boxster convertible roof, replacement elastic just need fitting in place of the worn out old original elastic with replacement Boxster roof elastic costing less than £1 to buy. The convertible roof repair is completed in less than 20 minutes and saves both time and money compared to having a garage carry out the repair. Once the new Porsche Boxster convertible roof elastic is fitted, the convertible roof consistently sits within the frame channel as it should do.

My 1997 986 does not have the elastic held with a torx. It only has one Velcro loop. I'm assuming it was an early production model. And yes, it does have this issue but only on the US passenger side where the cover has pulled away from where it gets fastened to the end of the steel wire. Needs to be sewn back in place, not easy to do in such a tight space.

Nice one mate - had the same issue for the last couple of years - I was stopping the hood half way then getting out and placing the fabric in the guide before fully closing- will not fix it properly as you have shown 👍

Cheers mate, doing mine this weekend. My leak left water on the passenger door well and killed the rear control module which is over £400....so if yours needs doing get it done sharpish.

Don't think I have any leaks, but its not the best idea of Porsche to put electrics on the floor of a convertible is it lol....

Hi there , thanks for the video it’s very informative. It looks really straightforward, how long was the new piece of elastic ?
@TheCampervanBuilder
@TheCampervanBuilder 10 месяцев назад
I bought 1/2 a meter and that was way too much, each strip is probably around 10cm per side

When the hood is retracted in the well there is tension on those elastic straps. How are the staples holding up?

Absolutely fine, I went overboard and can’t see them coming loose anytime soon, most people use this method

Very strange seeing another porsche boxster in atlas grey, with the blue roof and cayman s wheels, thought mine was unique 😅😅😅
@TheCampervanBuilder
@TheCampervanBuilder Год назад
Yes I'm sure there'll be a few out there, but it's certainly not a common colour combination what with the Atlas grey being an metallic optional extra

Hood? OhYeah, you guys are not in America................ Great Vid and very well and simply put. Sidebar: is the roof on a house a "hood" as well? We say roof on homes and cars...............Cheers

Ehhh… use a sewing machine or needle. Do not use staples. Do not recommend that method.
@TheCampervanBuilder
@TheCampervanBuilder 2 месяца назад
Each to their own but I don’t know how you’re supposed to get a sewing machine inside the hood to sew it. Needle and thread can be used but there are no issues using staples, many many people do it this way
