I cant find this info online... looking for the depth and width of the frunk in a c2s and c4s. also, looking for the length from the bottom front of the cavity to the top of the rear (basically whats the biggest flat square that will fit vertically and biggest that will fit tilted)

thanks for your time.

From my 09 C4 (I don't think it should differ from C4S):

30in wide by 16in deep
15 in high in the front (right next to front bumper) 20 in high in the back (near the battery)

Hope that helps. I had time to check it while my dog was out taking a crap...

Whoops, missed your request about diagonal from bottom front to upper back. Using math, that should be 25.6" or thereabouts.

Confirmed - 25.5" diagonal by measurement (while the other dog was taking a crap)

I have a 997.1 C2S

Since the frunk is not a perfect square, I took several measurements.

the width towards the front of the car (narrowest width) = 19"
the width towards the rear (widest portion) = 26"

The height to the rubber seal towards the front of the car = 15'
the height to the top of the CD changer housing towards the rear of the frunk = 24"

the measure diagonal length from the base of the front of the frunk to the top of the CD changer towards the rear = 27.75 inches

hope this helps

PS: let me join in the guessing game: picture frame?

Why not just get smaller beach chairs? Or foldable ones?

beach chair will fit but it may scrape the hood if fell forward. Need to fix it against the battery/firewall.
