| Is it possible to retrofit a 2010 paddle shift wheel to a 997 tip car? Alberta Alex - Friday, 27 April, 2012, at 2:38:57 pm |
Sorry, I haven't been around lately. Although I no longer drive a Boxster, I still come back to this page to "visit" with old friends and ask questions.
I have a friend who just bought a 997 TT with tip. He loves the paddle shifters of the PDK equipped cars. Is it possible to retrofit a steering wheel with paddle shifters onto a 2007 car? If so, how much work is involved? Could a dealer do it?

Alex is asking about a 997 equipped with a Tiptronic.
The discussion in the Planet 9 is for adding the paddle shifters to a PDK equipped car.

From the quote below (taken from the link), it appears that 'Salmonella' installed paddle shifters in his 2008 Cayman S. (I think it was in 2009 that Porsche introduced PDK, though I could be mistaken.)
"why dont you consider the paddle steering wheel from suncoast? I've an 08 CS and ordered the paddle wheel from suncoast (speak to aaron) a little while back. I also purchased a control module for the wheel. Managed to get it all installed at my dealers 2 days ago. They spent a whole day configuring the new wheel, transferring data to the new control module but thankfully it was done."
In any event, Alex may be able to ascertain more about it, by emailing Salmonella directly. I've found members of Planet 9 to be very helpful.
