You should know better. Most of the answers are in the archives. ( in one form or another. )

That was a great write up Eric...

I still need to find a week or two of quiet time where I can go through old rennlist postings and put them up on the FAQ.

Any other volunteers???

Why is everything such a PIA? I could stand restetting the error code button before I drive but now it's a horn issue. It would be nice if MOMO would mention you need two additional parts to eliminate the error message and make your horn work. D@MN!

Yeah, but you know the non airbag wheels are only for racing who needs a horn anyway??? The airbag tool listed in my write up has gone up in price so I am told. I got a e mail from somebody that it was now 200.00 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> You may want to give Gert a buzz if you get price quotes over 100.00. Maybe my DYI caused a run on airbag tools!!

Great more money <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> .................I love this car but can something be reasonably priced? For once.. I love how you can buy suspension, sway bars or whatever for a lower prices on other makes of cars. I also noticed some of the same parts are cheaper for newer and older 911's. This must be a very popular car(993) because they price the mods accordingly. <img border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" title="" src="graemlins/cussing.gif" />

Does somebody know the ohm-value of the resistor. Sounds very P-priced -- 60 U$ for single resistor!!!

One other thing I found out today after the install your blinkers don't cancel out on their own. You have to manually stop them. Even with the airbag light, no horn temporarily until I get the parts this wheel feels great. I am definately going to keep it. I will post some pics later.

Blinkers dont cancel?? do you have the Momo hub?
After installation the car went right to the shop for some goodies so I cant say mine worked but sitting in the car it worked. On the Momo hub there was a tab on the base that canceled the signals.

Yes I have the MOMO hub, it is for a 993/964 but the shop said it was a little short??? It really doesn't bother me to bad I am used to it already.
