Default Steering wheel fitment question

Folks,

I'm having trouble getting a steering wheel for my 964 (1990 MY)

I have a wheel with the part number 964 347 084 00 which is correct according to PET.





However it won't fit all the way on to the column. It leaves a gap.



My column looks like this, is it standard?



I obviously need a wheel with a larger spline but what would the part number be?

Does anyone have a wheel for sale that will fit?

Cheers
Jon

Any ideas anyone? Is it possible my car had a airbag originally? Or perhaps the switch gear / cowling is for an airbag steering wheel and fitting different ones would close the gap?

Cheers

What wheel did you take off? Was it from a 993 or 996? If so, I think the spline for those wheels is different, so someone may have changed it in order to make it fit?

Splines the same from 1989-2005, have you tried pushing it down or put the nut on and tighten it up?

Ok problem solved. The previous owner had fitted a new column switch unit and pushed it too far down the column. Once I adjusted the position of that all is good

On the plus side another wheel I bought whilst trying to sort this out turned out to be the small diameter 363mm wheel, so now I have a choice of wheels whilst still retaining the stock look.

Cheers

944 347 084 09 (10VERL) is the part number on mine. Looks the same as a standard wheel but smaller.

What happened with this? Did the 10VERL wheel fit your 964 properly?
