Default Warning Triangle and First Aid Kit

Does the North American version of the 911 come with the warning triangle and first aid kit?

I'm thinking that the European versions come with the warning triangle which is mounted inside the front trunk. My thought is that it is required by law in Germany, but not Canada (or USA).

When I picked up my 911 in Leipzig, the triangle was loose in the trunk, and the first aid kit was held on with velcro to the carpet.

Regardless, I snagged these when I dropped my car car off after ED.

I wonder if I can buy the mounting bracket separately, like what is shown here;

Yes, this was the EU law when I lived in Germany in the late 90's. I've grown to appreciate the safety of a warning triangle so I carry one in all of my vehicles. I added one to my GT4 recently.

Here are the PNs, with triangle included for others interested:

Default Warning triangle Installation on US vehicles

I just ordered and received the warning triangle and mounting brackets for my US spec 2019 Targa. After I read this thread, I suspected that there might be a difference between the US-spec and Euro-spec trunk liners. If you look at the trunk assembly diagram attached, you can see that the Euro liner has formed pockets for to accept the bracket "legs" on the underside, which are not present on the US-spec trunk liner. These liner pockets would help to support the weight of the triangle in addition to the plastic "xmas tree" fasteners.

Euro spec trunk liner assembly. See items 14 and 15...
