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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK, considering flappy paddle conversion for 996.2 Tip. Looks like the go is to use AMG SLK55 paddles, p/n A [phone removed]. Anyone done this out here, and availability of parts in Oz? Several s/hand Merc wheels on Ebay, end up slightly more $ than importing parts only , but would give me a look at the socket where the Paddles fit in order to replicate on a Porsche wheel. May have access to a P wheel which would allow me to keep my original wheel intact. Thoughts?
