Default AOS 2002 Porsche 996

I am having trouble getting to the second bolt on the AOS. I have the transmission out and gaining access from underneath. This is for a 2002 Porsche MKII which has the bolts on top and not on the wheel side. The bolt is a 5mm hex. I could go in from the top but it looks like the access to the hex bolt is still limited. If anyone has actually taken a MKII AOS off, your advice would be helpful.

Thanks, Chris

Did you pull the tranny just to replace the AOS?? or was it pulled for other reasons?

from what Ive read, the aos is way over engineered, maybe that is why it is a POS. Good job Chris... Planning to do the IMS?
