Sure...
...It's this:
https://www.vividracing.com/catalog/dct-motorsports-t96-sport-steering-wheel-porsche-996-carrera-turbo-9905-p-153657.html
Fits, works, feels, awesome!
I don't hit the bottom of the wheel with my thigh anymore.
The extra thickness is wonderful, but the biggest surprise to me, is the extra steering feel and effort due to the smaller diameter.
I am thrilled with it and would buy it all over again. I wish I hadn't waited so long to invest in one.

[QUOTE=10/10ths;519555]....Installed new steering wheel, chassis brace, tow hook tie downs, jack points, Bird "Oddments Console", iSimple Transit BLU, and 2015 World Champions sticker.
Where did you find a Bird arm rest? I've been wanting one of those for years.

The other day I installed my new Conti drive belt from Pelican Parts. I noticed it was made in Romania. That's different! Most things today are made in CHINA.

I bought some LED lights off eBay to stick on my 98 Box. They definitely make my car look a lot more modern than it is

I did the silver hood crest a few years ago and love how it looks. Where did you get the silver airbag crest and how do you swap it?
