Very nice Rudy. I am getting a pad keeper too. Glad to see one on a TT. It really gives it a finished touch.

PSS10 are on my radar as well. Let me/us know how the handling changes on your just learning to walk 17 year old baby low mile TT.

By the way that picture of the turbo in the middle of all those other Porsches is simply iconic.

I'm doing PSS10's too. How much did you lower yours from North American stock?

Hi.
Where did you buy the pad keeper?
I am taking the engine out this winter, and want to do this upgrade.

Thanks
Terje

You can easily make your own with a 2"X 36"x1/16" aluminum that you can buy from Lowes. Elongate the holes a little and your done.
Get some of these thread cutting nuts (maybe 1/8"-1/4") and you're good.Name:  image.jpg

993Godspeed, I think Rudy is referring to the engine pad/mat. The keeper holds up the sagging mat that's common on our cars. ;-)

Just had a "where's Waldo" moment. Do you need new lid struts? Caught a glimps of visegrips back there :-). What I was trying to verify is, did you take the blower motor out? Did you make your own heater tube or did it already have it? Beautiful car.
