Bought one of these today!
 Porsche 996 986 T96 Sport Leather Steering Wheel Carrera C4S Turbo Yellow | eBay
I'm lucky enough to live about 15 min from the show room in Santa Clara, so was able negotiate a nice cash deal. Will be installing this weekend and will post Picts!

Right now I'm on a performance upgrade mode.
I do have plans for the interior, but it's last on my list right now.

BFeller...you can do that? I have one that rattles a bit because it is not a very tight fit.

Yes, the toll bar clips can be replaced. A piece of plastic broke on my mounting clip. A kit is available at Pelican that contains the two clips for the roll bar and the tab for the base of the windscreen. It also contains rivets for attaching. I had previously also replaced one of the lever clips on the windscreen itself because it broke off. I still haven't figured out to get the windscreen on and off properly.

After a new air oil separator went in earlier this week I drove it almost 800km today, top down all day. Totally forgot about sunscreen and now I have a burnt nose, but totally worth it!

I washed it and then failed to do an oil change. I got motul 8100 and a filer wrench from amazon. Got it up onto the ramps, opened my amazon box, and realized that the filter and filter wrench were being shipped separately....
