Default Rear package shelf?

Did any 993s have a rear package shelf instead of seats? Does anyone have pictures??

Are you refering to the rear seat delete option? I have it but don't have any pictures. If you can do an effective search you can find nice pictures. I can tell you that this option weighs about 25 lbs.

I am waiting for the rear seat delete to become the next sport seat or 3 spoke steering wheel craze. When that happens and I can command big dollars for mine, I will sell.

I found lots of pics here although searching may be difficult now. A google search should show up a few pics on Pelican also. I would like to get my hands on one too but I think they sell for $500-$800US and are hard to find.

I beieve "MikeJ" and "briefscape" got together and made one for "briefscape's" cab. I believe MikeJ is on holidays but when he returns he might be able to help out with dimensions to build one.

Here is another (pilfered )pic. You could build one but the doors would be tricky.

Sorry for the repost but trying to search for anything is a total waste of time.

Thanks for the pictures. Dimensions would be awesome if someone has them.

More info - in a cab the rear seats do not fold down so the rear seat delete is the only solution. The one for the cab is different then the one for the coupe by the way. So be careful to get the correct one. The one pictured above appears to be one for a coupe. They are tricky to install. I have a file of photos from another Rennlist member of the removal of cab rear seats and install of rear seat delete. If anyone is interested give me a PM.

For your 1st question, here's a 993 parts diagram. Porsche calls it a "rear luggage dump"


Nice timing with your thread: I just got an RSD in the mail; opened it & took this photo for your 2nd question. (It's from a fellow Rennlister. I stumbled upon an old 'for sale' listing back when the 'search' function apparently worked better.)

Hope this helps.
Any larger photos of your wheels around here? Look good in your avatar.

On-line 993 search led me to these. No affiliation.
