No, just plug in the resistor when you disconnect the wire going to the airbag. It's right under the dash with an orange 2 pin connector. Takes all of 2 mins to do.

I assume the battery should be disconnected for a half an hour or so and the key should not be inserted during the process as to not trigger the airbag module trouble codes

True, as long as the battery is disconnected 30 mins prior to proceeding, it shouldn't matter what you do with the key j/k

Costs extra for the red stitching and the embossed porsche

Seriously though, I like the red stitching, don't care for he porsche letters too much. Looks to be the same otherwise.

I would not sweat it

That is the way the 964 Turbo S steeringwheel looked like.

The 1991 951 I owned had that steering wheel from factory. IMO the nicest wheel from Porsche.

Here is a bad screenshot pic I took of the ad when my old -91 recently sold on in Germany. You can see the wheel.

That car had a spec I have never seen before. It is cobolt blue with full leather interior in blue and that is with leather dash, centerconsole, doorcards, rear sides etc etc in leather. It also has wood interior, klangpaket with 10 cd changer in the boot. 17" cup 1 etc from factory. It was also built in the Stuttgart plant which only the very late -91 cars was all other at the Audi neckarsulm plant. Very rare spec and I loved that steering wheel. My father in law bought the car and sadly drove it into a ditch. It was bent really bad and was fixed up and sold again by the company that bought it from the insurance company and later ended up in Germany and sold recently.

Guys I put the new steering wheel on and plugged the orange connector with the resistor that Raj sent me. I have an airbag light though when I started the car. Any ideas?

You will need to clear the code via durametric or a similar diagnostic tool.
