I looked at suncoast and even under GTS. I don’t see any exposed screw/bolt black inserts for multifunction oe otherwise for GT wheel. May have the dealer find out and order a set from the GTS.

Not a workshop manual, but a good DIY post:

Thanks, I also think the multifunction inserts with external bolts are not available in black. Only in silver

so I will be stuck with silver ones

Found this picture on the forum. After you remove ther steering wheel you would need to remove the three screws in the back. That will remove the lower trum and then you have access to remove the front large trim piece giving you access to remove those pieces.

Does someone have the link to the Black inserts for the 991.2 GTS Sport Steering wheel, non-mulit-function? I am thinking about sending my wheel out for some custom work and have them swap them out for the silver ones.

Thanks, and I am thinking about having Craft Customs redo my steering wheel with a dial stripe at 12 o'clock and while at it I would send them the Black inserts to install.

Craft customs did my macan wheel. Great work!!!! Its does make the wheel thicker if you have heating (they have to wrap over it) though so make sure they assemble it otherwise the trim wont clamp on tight

I replaced the silver trim multifunction switches with black from suncoast. Disconnect the battery after opening the door. Two holes bottom of steering wheel with a small flathead to release the airbag module. Use same small flathead to unplug the yellow and orange airbag plugs. T55 Torx drive and a ratchet to remove the bolt and wheel. Small torx drive to remove rear wheel cover, and then a little more manual labor. Took about an hour start to finish. I’m mildly mechanically-inclined.

You make it sound so easy! I MIGHT be able to do it, with lots of pictures.
