Looking for info on the luggage compartment cover that attaches to (goes up with) the hatch instead of just hooking up to the rear panel.
Anyone have a car with option M685, can you post some pictures of it?
Parts #7 (9445550270270G) and #12 (9445557750070B) in the pet diagrams.

Looking into making a kit to convert the roll up into a lift with hatch, but have been running into some small issues.

Instead of converting a roll-up version, why not have an upholstery shop make one for the split fold-down seats per your picture. Years ago, there was a company selling them made from Sunbrella fabric. I have a brand new one (from Porsche) in the box for my 951. If it includes all the fittings, which I believe it does, I could send you my old cover, and you could get it reproduced. You'd also need the fittings that attach to the pillar.

Tom, that is also a very good option.
I have the way to make the fittings, or get the originals which are still available, expensive but available.

I would love to get my hands on on that, just let me know how to get to it.
I can make them in Sunbrella.
