I might be confusing the pan with the brackets. Every time I’ve needed one along with brackets - not in the last few years though - there were none available from Porsche. Last time, I got, I think, the only one Mark had.

It’s nice to know that new ones are again available.

Are these air ducts actually effective in cooling the MM? Im looking at the overall design of the system and it just doesn't seem to look effective.

Thanks Greg. Can I call the office Monday with the payment/shipping details or are you still in the middle of a move?

Why doesn’t it “seem to look effective?”

I think so....the motor mounts on cars with undertrays and ducts sure seem to last longer....I still see cars with the original motor mounts in reasonable condition and they all have undertrays with ducts.

I also believe that people are better off without an undertray, if the ducts are missing. For a few years, I installed aluminum undertrays without ducts and the motor mounts failed way too quickly.

I also believe that Porsche went to the cost and trouble of putting them into the undertray, for a reason....
