Look in your toolkit that came with the car. There's one included.

Not in my '06 Boxster-S ... Got a compressor, bottle of tire goo, tool for opening joints on the soft top mechanism, tow eye and a mini-tool kit but it doesn't have the wheel guide ... Some bright light at Porsche decided we'd never need to change wheels I guess ...

Thanks for the P/N Paul.

it really isn't necessary to use this tool to change tires. but it makes it a little easier. btw my audi a6 came with one.

It also saves your painted break calipers from getting banged. I know I started using it now. Make it a lot easier especially with my solid turbo twists that are really heavy.

Exactly ... I'm getting to be an old hand with the wheel / brake changes for DE days but I was missing the guide pin I had on my old 540i. Its just too easy to bang into things you didn't want.

I noticed for the PCCB option they recommend 2 guide pins ... at the cost of one of those disks & pretty yellow calipers, I guess so
