996 TT ventilation

Does anybody know where the intake for the ventilation / AC on a 996 Turbo is?

At the base of the windscreen, I think.

OK,Thanks Steve. Does any air come in from the grilles in the front spoiler? Reason I ask is that I think somethink unpleasant has got in there and died, and I want to know where to look !

Eeeek sounds like a mouse may have got inside the car & curled up it's toes in the inlet pipe !!

Similar tale to tell......A while ago I saw the well flatened remains of a small deer in the middle of the road & thought I would be able to drive over it without the wheels etc coming in contact. I forgot about the bloody low front spoiler & underbody on these TT's. It made a nice scraping noise & a slick of rotting deer was smeared all along the underbody of the car. Every time you came up to the car (or got out) you were greeted to the smell of rotting flesh....lovely.
After much lying on stomach with hose in hand the problem was sorted & I could remove the clothes peg from my snoz !

Moral of story, don't try & run over anything larger than a gnat in a TT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
