Yeah exactly. This is it.

I installed one on both the e46 cayman.


Is this for the boxster? The only catch is that on the Cayman the nuts wouldn't come all the way off the bolt. The bolt seems to be modified to prevent removal. I ended up damaging the battery terminal clamp by forcing it.

If the nut won't come off nicely, I'd modify the battery tender ring to make it a "C" instead of a closed ring and slide it on the side of the bolt.
