Post boxster hardtop

Will the older hardtops fit the '03 boxster. Did Porsche make any changes to the hardtops over the years.

The old hardtops will work on the 03 Boxsters.

I have taken my 1997 hardtop and put it on newer cars. Also, my friend with a 2003 bought a 2001 top and we put it on his car. Jeff

There is one change: The early roofs have handles on the sides and the later ones do not. These make no difference to fitting them on to a newer car, however.

I must say I find that exhaust pipe set up "disturbing"...

Don't forget to order a set of spin-locks if you get a hardtop for a car that didn't come with one or didn't come with the speedster humps.
