I've just checked my RHD 993 and the spoiler is powered from the right side of the engine bay.



Maybe you could take the cover off your airbox (for extra room) and double check for the wiring.

Agreed. Remove your air filter cover to have better access. Look way deep in the fuel filter area, behind the dipstick handle, and possibly sandwiched above the foam engine pad.

This is what I was thinking. The pad looks to be in very good shape, so maybe it was replaced? If so, maybe the plug is above the pad - or maybe it was removed...

I've got a RHD C2S and have just been thru this same exercise.......it will definitely be there and more than likely tucked under the pad on the RHS.........with the airbox removed you'll be able to find it without much trouble at all.

Guys, you all are life savers! The solution is opening the airbox and the harness sits beautifully behind the airbox! Connected it and the rear spoiler works now.

Thanks all!

Lucky for me, it appears my factory aero kit II car also came with the controller under the dash.
