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

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 |

Just buy a pickup truck!!!
 Then you don't have to worry about "will it fit....", or that it is greasy. Clay |

The 901 will also fit perfectly in the frunk of a 914.
