Default contents of front trunk foam compartment for 991 Carrera

Can someone please upload a photo of their driver's side front trunk compartment to this thread? It seems that I'm missing a flat plastic PDK device to the left of my finger. Am I missing anything else where my finger is or to the right of the wheel lock? (see photo below) Thanks.

Mine is a manual transmission 991.2 and the contents look exactly the same.

Thanks for the post and the photo! It's good to know that I'm not missing a bunch of stuff in the larger two spaces on the right side of the foam compartment.
It looks like I'm only missing the PDK release (a thin plastic lever) that goes on the left side of the bottom of the foam compartment, which a manual wouldn't be expected to have.
Thanks again!

Thanks to all for posting this. My new to me Carrera T tool kit looks the same except for a "headlight removal tool" which is housed in the black plastic sleeve in the same fiberglass case shown above. It is referenced in a bumper removal video posted by Rennline showing how to install their radiator protection grilles.

On the video they open the sleeve by pulling it apart, and "voila!" the removal tool is there. Except in mine, it is not. Can any of you reading this please check yours and post what is in the long black plastic sleeve? Thanks!

Thanks! The long cylindrical tool/rod is what is missing from mine and seems to be the tool that Rennline mentioned in their video. Pics of yours would be great!

I bought a 6 month old C4S PDK last winter and both of those tools are missing in mine also.

Mine is "missing" too.
But I have 7MT, so no PDK tool is required.
SFZ GT3's question is Is there another tool in that kit to remove the headlight assembly?
As his twin brother, with almost twin 911T's, . I am also interested in solving this mystery.
Any help/pics of this elusive headlight tool would be great!
Thanks,
GT3FZS

It's for manual sunroof retraction. Remove the plug in the headliner and it twists a gear in there. I suspect you don't have a sunroof if it's missing.

The Allen key is for manual operation of the Sun roof. I have one in my kit, since I have a glass sun roof.
Anybody can tell us what they have in the little black rectangular box?

Just basic tools. I think only a wrench and screwdriver in the .2.
