No I don't. Where did you get the pic from and how much is it? If I would have to guess I would think it would be from a Cayenne.

The first aid kits were standard on ROW cars. I believe the original ones may have been in a black case. You may be able to buy new replacements (with red case) from a Porsche dealer or you can get it from Gert Carnewal. It's the same as for the 99x, Boxster, & Cayenne.

Mounted under the black straps found inside the front trunk floor panel covering the spare tire well - the vertical one w/the 3 lock tabs.

BTW, several on eBay right now.

My car was a European delivery car and it has the red first aid kit. The kit is not stored on the vertical portion of the front trunk panel, but inside the spare tire along with a smaller air compressor than the US cars received.

O.K. then, does anyone know what the black straps are for ??? I noticed them on my bud's C4S the other day. He did not know and the only thing that made sense to me was first aid kit as I know cars in Germany must have them.

I bought this one from Ebay (Brandywineporsche) for $15. It is the ROW black one that attaches to the velcro on the trunk carpet. It is very nice with all kinds of goodies inside, scisors, gauze, tape, etc, etc. It is 7"x7" square. The red one, like the one in my Audi, is bigger in size and made to fit inside an armrest.

I didn't see that he has any on sale now, but when I bought mine, he had several listed. You may want to contact him directly.

I use those straps to hold the rolled-up tool kit.

Hi Guys;

the straps are definitely for the first aid kit as on my car I have the factory sticker(to the left of the hood latch in the trunk) that points down to that location. Its a big cross/first aid symbol with an arrow...

Wish the kit was in there though... now I'm looking for one...
