Default Quick question: Wheel mount guide bolts?

When I bought my 996tt, the spare tire kit came with a wheel mount guide bolt that allowed me to put on my wheel without slamming it into my caliper. However, I tried to find it in my 997tt and didn't see it. Can someone confirm/deny that it came with the car or do I need to buy it from a dealer? Thanks!

It came with it but they have a habit of disspearing. Mine were missing as well.. Order a couole from Suncoast or Sunset Porsche. These are a MUST with PCCB's.

They weren't included with the 997's.

I just put on studs to replace those pesky lug bolts.
