Default 951 engine undertray - proper setup?

Hi everybody

I have 944 Turbo S US spec car and at the moment it's missing the engine bay undercover. I'm quite confused which parts I should order. No doubt this one is correct: 951.504.069.00 protective plate, made of aluminium (#5 on first picture) but then there is a choice of two:
- 944.504.167.03 - marked with number 1 on first picture
- 944.504.311.00 and 944.504.312.00 - 2 pieces, number 7 on second picture, called 'lining TURBO' in Porsche PET.
Could someone advise me please which one(s) was originally fitted to Turbo S sold in North America?

Cheers

I believe number 1 is one of the two pieces that reside underneath the cabin. Directly under the seats. They are in addition to the panels in the upper example.

#1 goes between the batwing and the metal cover.

#7 goes under the floor pans behind the metal shield. The one in the picture is the driver's side, and the cutout is for the jacking post.

on a related note, does that metal shield fit a non-turbo car?

OK so I need part #1 from first picture and metal piece #5.

I'm not sure about this - are these panels plastic or they are a part of metal body? Does anybody have a picture of bottom of the car? One picture is worth more than 1000 words...

Hi
Not trying to tell you how to spend your money but you might be better off getting one for a salvage year or a guy on Rennlist that is parting out a car?
All the best

I agree, Porsche is going to really stick it to you for those parts... if they are still available. I would check out ebay.. Lart will probably have a few of them and may be able to help you out...

I'm not going to get them from dealer, no worries, I'm not a millionaire. Unfortunately...
I have already aluminum part and two lining parts, used but in decent shape, still looking for centre undertray.

Cheers
