I'm going to do the OBC hack and I was wondering. Do I have to buy the 4 switch stalk or can I buy the obc stalk and attach it to my 3 switch stalk?

The fourth stalk can be added.

Excellent, thank you so much! I guess I'll still have to remove the steering wheel to install it?

I’ve never done one that way, so I cannot comment.

OK. You got me. What is an OBC stalk?

It's the 4th stock on the steering column that controls the on board computer. A lot of the 911's didn't come with it.

I replaced my 4 stalk with a 3 stalk and added my 4th stalk, so yes, it definitely can be done.  You "might" be able to pull it off with the wheel still in place, but its tight working  space.  Not a big deal to remove the wheel, just make sure you disconnect the battery for a while before messing with the airbag and don't reconnect it until everything is buttoned up (or you'll get an airbag warning light that you need to clear).
