No, those are formed (bent) which kinda suck... better to get the machined ones, from:

How did you guys install the tack trim without taking the steering wheel out?

i used poster puddy as someone suggested. so far worked great. oh and i got the cheap set that was referenced on ebay. i'm actually happier with that set as i didn't want to cover up the entire bezel. i thought it'd looked better to have a bit more contrast.

cheers,

Cetro,

The trim rings just install over the existing bezels. Nothing is removed. The install is completly harmless (depending upon the adhesive you use). I used double sided tape, and it took all of ten minutes to install the complete set, and I'm a doofus. Happy Holidays.

ca993twin,

When I try to install the bezel, it get's caught against the steering column. I can't get the bezel to go down far enough. Do the 993 have adjustable steering?

I would recommend not using anything but the putty or tape-these can both be easily removed if need be. I have the machined ones and they are great. I chose the brushed finish-matches my aluminum shifter, hand brake and B-K harness bar. All against a black interior. Just thinking about it makes me want to have a cigarette....
