These 2 stickers came on a 1973.5 911T. Has anyone ever seen them before? Any ideas to what they were? I have attached a pic and look forward to hearing any ideas.

If it has shielded/grounded plug wires perhaps that was the campaign? Porsche's "solution" to blowed up airboxes.
It didn't work.
I think that may have been the fuel line reroute recall that burned a few in the beginning. There were other "Campaign Codes" (you might call it a recall that didn't go far enough) but the fuel line caught the most attention along with the shielded wires fiasco as Frank mentioned.
What ever you do, don't remove it or the mattress tag police will hunt you down...:)

Ask and ye shall receive...
Wow.. Thanks again 911sregistry..
Is there anyway, I could find out if my 1973.5 had this done? Does Porsche keep recall information by VIN and prove to NITSA that the car had it done?
Thanks
If it wasn't done it would be burned up by now.
