Great for track days. Store your gear in it then drop it in the car, Pull it out at the track. I need to find one that fits my 991S.

I have a 991 base cab
Anyone found one that fits 991 S? Not 991.2.

You sure? Ours does...

Thanks a lot. But does it fit 991.2? I'm almost sure the 'frunk' is the same, but just want to make sure . Take care.

Home Depot does have a discount for veterans, but you have to ask for it in the store. Lowe’s, by comparison, lets you apply it to online purchases too. I’ve also heard HD does have some stores that don’t honor their discount, but have never run into that personally.

(not favoring Lowe’s over HD with this as I usually shop in person at HD, but HD does seem to have created confusion comparatively.)

Yes, it fits *some* 991.2 models. IIRC from reading all of the posts in the thread, it does not fit in AWD cars and I can tell you from experience that it doesn’t fit a RWD GTS. That said, with a RWD C or CS, it should work fine from what others have reported here.

Do you know the exact product number. The one I have seems to be just a bit to large.

Yes. Mine is a 991.2 C2, and it fits perfectly (just like the one in the pic in the post right above this one). But as others have posted, it doesn’t appear to fit the 991.2 C4 or 991.2 GTS.

Take a look at mine. I have a spare in mine. I was stranded in my 991.1 C4S about 50 miles from home once, and it was a long ride with fix a flat and air compressor. So i dug out an older 996 spare tire. It still looks pretty good, but probably end of life. I guess having fix a flat, an air compressor, and the spare will give me options. I have no patience to wait 2-3 hrs for AAA or porsche.

Cheap tote from Walmart and it does close pretty good as it has some latches that click on the left and right side. The spare pops that up a little, but its still closed and latched.

AWESOME. Thanks. Hopefully somebody will post the exact item number, to be able to order it online. I liked the black with yellow lid . As a side note, wonder why the GTS has a smaller 'frunk', without AWD. Just curious. Thx.

I bought mine from Lowe’s, and it appears to be the exact same item that Home Depot sells. I purchased it online and then drove to the store for curbside pickup. Here’s the name of the product and the model #:

COMMANDER 17-Gallon (68-Quart) Black Tote with Standard Snap Lid

Item # 831508 Model # 831508

I confirm as well this this tote doesn't fit my 991.2 GTS RWD. Could it be that the the RWD GTS uses the AWD wide body platform which has a smaller frunk?

I came across one from Sterilite and it fits perfectly and it does not slide around. Got it at Walmart.

Off the label:
26.5" L x 16" W x 12.25" H (67.3cm x 40.6 cm x 31.1 cm)
66 Qt. / 62 L


I wanted this tote for my 991.1 GTS. I think this product is no longer offered by Sterilite -- I checked their website and looked at WalMart, Home Depot and a few other places without success for this exact size. They do offer a similar one that is not as wide but a little taller.

Sterilite 1687 bin at Target.

https://www.sterilite.com/SelectProd...=182&section=1

Says it is discontinued for 2020 which is a shame as it fits both a 981 and a 991.2 frunk pretty well.
