How to connect battery tender on GT3?
I simply connected the battery tender leads to the easily accessible battery located in the frunck on my 2009 C2S.
Upon getting my GT3 home, the arrangement is not the same. No battery was visible up front. I am short the owners manual for now as the dealer had to order one.

There is a cover. Towards the front end closer to the front end of the car...there are two places you can stick your fingers in front of the circular strut tops. Pull both sides up till it in unclips and slide the cover towards you and lift out.

The second pic shows the cover pull points. There is a quick release plug in the pic.

What is the advantage of connecting to the battery directly as opposed to the cigarette lighter?
Never understood why one would need/want to connect to the battery directly. Would love to be educated.

Thanks for the help. If I had been slightly more adventurous taking off the plastic trim cover I would have not had to waste everybody's time.
After a 10 hour drive getting it home, it was late and I was too tired to experiment.

Doesn't matter. I have an AGM battery in my 991 GTS and the Porsche branded maintainer works just fine. I use it through the 12V socket in right footwell. If you read the specs on the CTEK 3300, I don't think you will find any significant difference in the snowflake mode and regular mode.
