It sure is nice to have a '99.

Indeed it is. Neither key fob works for mine, but I don't care. Unlocking / locking with a key is just fine. Manual cable releases are just fine...unless they break.

Not sure if you solved the horn issue, but my horn sounds when I brake hard (common worn bushings issue in the frame).
I pulled the fuse at B3, now no more horn.

Gnat, you ever fix this, or did you just torch the car?

Neither, but I really should get it resolved. I noticed last night that spiders have built a nice nest in the rear passenger wheel

1.5 months later I've finally done something about the damn thing. Finally got AAA to come get it and take it to the shop.
Funny thing. If you can't get into the frunk to fix your dead battery, you also can't get into the frunk to get your tow hook
Similarly frustrating, the 958's hook has too wide of a flare to fit through the hole in the bumper and the BMW's (I didn't expect, but it would have been nice) was too small. Luckily the shop is only a couple miles away, the tow truck driver was nice and willing to wait, and the shop had a 987 Cayman with a tow hook that worked (they had another 996 there, but it didn't have it's tool bag).
So I'm going to find a way to keep the hook in the cabin from now on just in case access to the frunk is ever forbidden again.
