Something worth noting, make sure to fully unplug all of the connectors from the wheel before removing it or the clock spring will come loose and unwind. They don't currently have clock springs with PDK available (as far as I can tell) so it won't be as easy as replacing it. I bought the clock spring that went with my VIN and asked the dealer to verify that it was for PDK since my research led me to believe that it was for a manual. Once I put the new one on it was clear that it was for manuals only. Fortunately I was able to wind mine back up properly and reinstall it.

If new functions need active can buy the code from russian guy,like retrofit multifunction,heating,cruise control.

Great job Yuan, everything works exactly like it should.

Do I go ahead and order the unit with heating support anyway? Just want to make sure everything else is just plug and play going from a 991.1 MF with heat wheel.

I have a 15 991.1 GTS MF wheel w heating.

Can I order the 991.2 GTS MF alcantara w heating from suncoast for the swap?

It would be helpful if somebody could like the part number for the replacement wheels, there are so many!

I will probably do the solder as I want to keep the heating function, although no critical I guess.

This it the 991.2 MF GTS wheel on suncoast. Is this the right wheel?
