3 Spoke Steering Wheel

[jinijazz]

I am confused with 2 different part numbers for 3 spoke tiptronic steering wheel.

996.347.983.29 A28 + color code

996.347.804.64 A28 + color code

What's the difference? Anyone? :help:

996.347.983.29 A28 Black Steering wheel with Aluminum Look/Leather - MY03 on

996.347.804.64 A28 Black Steering wheel - MY00 on

Don't forget to order a 3 spoke air bag - the steering does not come with one.

Thanks Loren,

So the second one(996.347.804.64) is not leather?

Any comment on leather & leatherette difference on steering wheel? (and also airbag?)

[Loren]

I think all steering wheels are leather covered on 996's. The second one is plain (no aluminum). The leather vs. leatherette is a matter of taste and upkeep/care. If you have a lot of leather in the car (i.e. large or small leather package) then you might want to stick with leather.

Here is a pic of mine in leather.

Sounds like leather is the way to go. :cheers:

Thanks for the help!
