The ones on the Techart site have some kind of notch intruding on the airbag so you can't use the Porsche bag.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Techart makes nice wheels but the airbag unit does not have the porsche crest. Does anyone know of a thicker wheel with the Porsche crest?

POST 2Original post

Not sure for your 996, but 993ers like the wheel at AJ USA. The crest is extra but can be bought as well.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Jack, I think yours is an old model or something. The ones on the Techart site have some kind of notch intruding on the airbag so you can't use the Porsche bag. It looks like Techart redesigned their wheels so you have to buy the airbag from them also.

POST 6Original post

Leon: I'm positive you can still get this wheel, or I'll eat my words. You can't rely on TA's website. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> This wheel is sold on an exchange basis, as TA just recovers a Porsche factory 3-spoke wheel and will customize it according to your specs, i.e., carbon fibre, two tone leather, colored stitching. Contact By Design at [phone removed], ask for Matt or CEC at [phone removed], ask for Albert. Ask for the "Jack Fried" price -- it's only double retail. <img src="http://www.jackspictures.com/images/996TT/gauges-TA%20steering%20wheel.jpg" alt=" - " />

POST 7Original post

Those wheels still appear in 996 Program, poke around a little. They are 340mm and are built on Porsche frames, might be more than factory thick one though. <img src="http://www.msnusers.com/[email removed]/Documents/TechArt%204-spoke.bmp" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://www.msnusers.com/[email removed]/Documents/TechArt%20Steering%20Wheel.bmp" alt=" - " />

POST 8Original post

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
