Does your Porsche emergency kit have a Porsche part number, were they year specific?

I have the same one in my car. I'm guessing it was used across different models because first aid kits and warning triangles are/were required by German law and had to meet a certain spec.













The the white/green international first aid symbol has a 996 part # though (996.701.170.00).
It's referred to as a sticker but it's actually plastic with a velcro backing.

Yes, the bin comes with a thin black strip with double sided tape which I presume tapes to the underside of the bin for additional support.

I happen to have that strip unused with the adhesive still ready to peel and mount if someone needs it.

Seems like a great idea if you need to occasionally haul a dismembered corpse in the frunk. Hope they eventually release one for the C4...

Also, I believe this comment is necro-thread appropriate.

I will sometimes take the car to pick up gas in a couple 5 gallon tanks for yard equipment. I put down a large contractor garbage bag first. This would likely be better, but I have a C4, sooo....

Does anyone know where this black strip is supposed to go?

Isn't the only difference that the differential is in the frunk where the spare sits on the C2? Should be enough room in the frunk on a c4 since the spare is laying flat under the carpet liner. Maybe the depth is shallower because of this? Anyone car to measure their c2?

No the rear wall of the frunk is very different in the c4.
