997 tip steering wheel on 996

[mesiste]

Does anyone know if a 997 tiptronic steering wheel will work on the 996

997/1 Tiptronic steering wheel should work on 996 Tiptronic cause the same system, 997/2 PDK could be different, i never have check it out.

Will the steering wheel physically fit the 996 column shaft? The nut is very different on both cars, so I wondered if maybe the column shaft might be different. Also, does the 997 have an airbag contact unit that is compatible with the 996? I'd be interested to know, because I quite like the look of the 997 sports steering wheel.

Hmm, are the nuts collared in or something? I would think as long as the splines equate, and the length is the same, then you could just plug and play. But thats just me thinking. I do miss the Grant days.
