New steering wheel

My question is, that if i buy the new (991/981) porsches' sport steering wheel, (the one with the levers for shifting) can i fit it on my 987.1 cayman s, with tiptronic gearbox? mine has buttons on the steering wheel, but i dont use them at all, so i dont care, if there are no more. the reason i want to do this, is that i dont like the button(?)s, to change gears, cause it's more fun to shift with the levers.

This is going to require some effort to make it work. The paddles in the 991/981 are designed to shift the PDK, not your Tip, and the PDK is controlled through its own computer system. You will need to fabricate whatever connections are needed to make it work with a Tip.
