Might need tool kit for 996 - is it same as Boxster one?

[stickypatch]

Hi all - this is my first post here. I'm posting from New Zealand.

I'm looking seriously at the purchase of a 1998 C2 - one of the things which came up in the pre-purchase inspection is that the toolkit is missing from the car - the one with a few basic tools and a towhook.

If I can get a toolkit secondhand from a dismantler in New Zealand or online through Ebay etc, I'm wondering if the toolkit is the same for the 996 and the Boxster? It looks the same from the photos I've seen, but I'm new to Porsches and I'm just not sure.

Thanks in advance for any answers.

Double check behind the spare before you buy another one.

Thanks for the tip - I will check tomorrow when I see the car again.
