    Nice video mate, confirms we can "easily" set a 991.2/718 steering wheel on a 981/997 !

    Thank you. Just swapped out my Alcantara wheel in my 997.2 GT3 for a leather one, and your video made it a breeze and not nearly as nerve racking as I thought it would be. 🤘🏼🤘🏼

    thx for the vid!! i used the same formula as you, but did in on a C2 convertible.. upgraded to multifunction steering wheel of same model year.. dealership and local porsche specialist mechanics told me it wouldn't work.. and that i did not have the proper wiring on my car based on the VIN. Used the foxwell 510 elite to download the MF software.. wa-lla! I may post it as well..

    Hi! Your video's have been quite useful so far. I also installed a multifunction steering wheel on my 981 (which didn't have the multifunction buttons) and added the GPS adapter in the steering wheel. I'm now trying to program the multifunction settings to activate the buttons. For this I also bought the NT510 with the Porsche software already on it. However, when I use it (after selecting my 981), I only get "diagnosis" and "special functions" but I'm not getting the third option "programming", which is what I need. Any thoughts ?

    Hello ! I have a 991.1 C4 cab with sports design wheel (where I have PDK shifters and lights that go off for Sport and Sport + modes and when I set it for Launch Control). That being said, can I install the same type of wheel as in your video (991.2 with controls (eventually, + heated wheel) ? If so, what do I need in terms of additional parts and programming devices if any ? Finally, what do the lights that normally turn on the wheel become ? Does the 991.2 have similar features where it’s embedded and can hardly see unless you activate such modes ? Does Changing the wheel create Piwi error codes ? Is there a risk of malfunction or worse the new wheel messing with the airbag security aspects ? Many thanks !

My car is a trip tonic can you please help me with what I need where I can get it and how to install what I need so that the paddle shifters will work. I took it to a mechanic but they do not know what to do with this upgrade. Hope you can help me I love the steering wheel

    Did you need to replace the Column Controller Unit? I was told I needed to buy Column Control Unit (Part 997.613.289.01)as well for this swap for my 997.1 Tip - how hard is it to install the Column Control Unit and does that need programming?

    I did not because the car shown is a 997.2, however for a 997.1 you do need that part. I'm not 100% sure if it needs programming. Maybe someone else with a 997.1 can chip in?

    The control module unit you used in the SW; 95B.959.256. There are several part numbers with a letter at the end of that part # (F, C, E). Does it matter if that part # has a letter at the end or not. One of those letters supersedes the original part#, does that matter?

    Don't take me on this, but I would think that the letter is assuming its pre-programmed in a certain way.
