Default What is that pocket for in the trunk carpet?

One of life's enduring mysteries for me is the long, narrow pocket in the 993 trunk carpeting. What the heck is it for? It seems a bit useless to me.

It's either to carry the Porsche tool set... Or to get in the way of a proper amp mounting.. Not sure which..

The ROW orange warning/hazard triangle, I think.

Here is North America, we like it primarily as a pimp-style fashion accessory.

I use it to hold a quart of oil and some spare fuses for my amp. I have a habit of under fusing my amp so I need a few spares from time to time
