Porsche Boxster 986 Hood/Bonnet Actuator Replacement

If the hood (aka bonnet) release of your Boxster 986 isn't working but you don't have electrical issues, you may need to replace the actuator. I'd heard this was pretty straightforward and common but couldn't find any how-to guides, so I tried to record things as I did it. Hope you find this helpful!

Steps may be similar for other Porsches of this era, particularly the 996, but I can't be sure.
