Default Trunk label question

I installed a shock tower brace in the C2S the other day and noticed, or should say didn't notice, something.

On the front trunk cowling (the trunk-width black plastic piece where it latches), on the passenger side near the fender, there's a blank rectangular space approximately 2" wide and 1.5" tall, and it has a slightly different texture from the rest of the cowling. It suddenly looked bare to me and I was wondering if there is some kind of sticker that's supposed to be there. Can someone look at their 993 trunk cowling and let me know if a sticker has fallen off of mine? If so, what sticker is it?

Thanks.

I noticed that when I was first inspecting my car. There was some discussion of a information sticker for emergency kit.

I've owned my '97 C2S since 1999. That's why I'm puzzled that it suddenly looks like something is missing. Weird........

It is for the emergency kit sticker. US models usually did not come with it

I keep the tire jack where the kit is placed up front under the elastic strap.

It's for the first aid kit location sticker [kit not required in the USA] - available from Porsche 993 002 722 00.
I think the stickers are about $6.00 each.

Thanks all. Mine is, of course, a US car so apparently there was never any sticker in that spot.

Now I'm trying to figure out why, after 15 years of ownership, I'm just now thinking something used to be there. It's hell getting old.

Cheers.
