The pedals of Boxster vehicles as of Mod. '98 (as of Mod. W) are identical to the 996 pedals, with the exception of the boost spring and boost-spring bracket.
The Boxster pedals before Mod. '98 (before Mod. W) differ from the pedals as of Mod. '98 in the following respects:

Bracket for clutch boost spring cannot be unscrewed. Consequently, the boost-spring bracket cannot and need not be adjusted. Furthermore, the distance between the bearing pins of the boost spring is 3 mm less.
Pedal bearing axle with different fastening method arrows < (clamping of the steering outer tube and fixing of the pedal-bearing axle).
No return spring on the brake pedal
