Differences between US and Euro spec

I've been told that Porsche does not provide a official list of differences between US and Euro spec models.
Since i have imported a US model to Norway it would be easier for me to rebuild the car to eurospec completely.

But does anyone have any official paper/list off the differences?

This is with regards to a 2001 996TT

I don't have an official list, but it is the US DOT that requires the changes. Typically this includes suspension (height), lighting (signal location and colors), emissions, access (like key FOB capability) and safety equipment (like bumper).

Not so sure about these days but in past years the window glass was different and also certain pieces of upholstery had better fire retardant on the US Cars.
