I have searched but cannot find what i want.

Any help appreciated.

I have a Heigo, and it fits under the carpet.

Heigo was the OEM Tequipment strut brace, I understand they are quite pricey now.

Schnell tower brace from Vertex Auto good stuff for only 109 about a year ago. Fits under nicely.

OMP. I didn't even know it was there for the first 2 years until I was poking around for something else.

Pretty blue

Heigo made the factory 964 & 993 RS ones as well. These are now stupid expensive at $887 (what the hell is Porsche thinking here??)

I'll have a clone of these available here very soon.

the stock RS fits perfect under the carpet. Just mount the brackets so that the bar is more orientated towards the fuel tank.
