Usually they will ask that a recall printout from a service computer have a business card photocopied onto it - something that has the Porsche crest. But yeah, go to your local Canadian Tire automotive desk, ask for the RIV inspector, show it to him and ask if it'll do - he'll tell you right there yes or no. No need to book an appt and bring the car in. The guy at my local CDN Tire is awesome - a real car guy who, while not breaking the rules, understands that child seat tethers in a boxster are ridiculous. That, and french airbag labels, never came up. Just DRLs and recall letter. And I had that same thing you do, just with the card copied on. He originally faxed me just the letter - I called him back and said "look, I realize this is dumb and I'm being a pain, but could you please refax it with your business card there?" He didn't mind at all - had it 5 min. later.
