I was under the impression 226 was LSD for 99 traction control equipped cars

750 = no hardtop when ordered.

That would be hard to imagine on my '03 (which also has 226).

I also have 226 on my '02 Coupe.

My p-car also has traction control, but as far as I can tell the option code for that is: 476 (996 - Traction Control).

This is not quite correct.
Option 476 is PSM.
Option 222 is Traction control.
Option 226 I am pretty sure is one of the internal change of manufacturers tyres options. These are not customer selectable they occur depending on the tyre situation in the factory at the time. Use of these numbers tells PAG Engineering via the build completion sheet that the planned tyres were not fitted.
There are a bunch of these numbers used for this purpose between 226 and 240.
By the way the interior code AE is not decodable. These two numbers are factory computer generated to provide a reference for the main interior colours used. Maybe in this case Black with Black trim.
AE will possibly show up on another model year being something else due to the lack of two letter combinations available.
Porsche cannot provide this number nor decode it either. They will give the actual colour combination on any documents provided like a Certificate of Authenticity and then the owner can match the code to the correct colour combination.
Ciao,
Adrian.

I'd love to be able to track down these last 3. Any help would be appreciated. Could one of them be rain sensing wipers.
Here's one, I think:
