Isn't there anyone willing to check their tool kit???
718 Tool Box: Headlight Removal Tool
Has anyone taken a close look at the tool box located in the Frunk on the right side?
Does your kit include the headlight removal tool?
Here's a photo of the tool.

That's unfortunate. I can only imagine the cost for replacing a light bulb.

The paint protection (Xpel) shop said that they have done many Caymans. The installer said that they remove the headlights so that they can wrap the film behind the headlight. He thought that the tool for removing the headlights was going to be in the included toolkit. That's why I started this thread.
Wait until I tell him that the bumper cover has to be removed to get the headlight out on 2017 Cayman/Boxster.
No way I going to let them remove the bumper cover on my car!

I am glad you bring this up. I'm getting Xpel put on my Boxster when it comes in April. I will have to ask the installer about this.The paint protection (Xpel) shop said that they have done many Caymans.

I'd be really interested in the DIY bumper removal.
How difficult was it to remove the front bumper? Approx how much time? I'm assuming no need to remove the headlights?
Is it similar to this reference for a 981 Front Bumper removal:

Or the 987?

I'll be doing my headlights soon. I have the 35w lamps, ballasts and new cables for doing so. I just need the time to do it I'll post back with some pics during the process.

Great upgrade but just be aware you come in from the wheel wells. No need to remove the bumper for the HID 35W upgrade.I'll be doing my headlights soon. I have the 35w lamps, ballasts and new cables for doing so. I just need the time to do it
