Boxster front trunk is pretty small. You might have better luck getting it in front of the passenger sear. Measure the front trunk and then have someone measure the trans.

Jim,

The trans is 26" long, 18" wide at the rear and 13" diameter at the front.

Only have 16 1/2 in the front, plenty wide. Can use front seat
The Boxster is a 987, trunk is smaller than the original 986

Then you don't have to worry about "will it fit....", or that it is greasy.
