Default Steering wheel compatible for 993 Model

Looking to switch my steering wheel on my 993 (1995); I know the 3 branch from the 996 are compatible but is there any other model that are as well?

Boxter? Caymen?

Thanks

It all depends on whether or not you want it with Airbag or no AirBag. If no Airbag then there's multiple choices from MOMO to Sparco. With Airbag your choices are limited to Factory Porsche 3spoke or 4spoke. Not sure if the 997 or Cayman 3Spoke will be a plug n' play solution. Aftermarket Airbag steering wheel only available is made by Atiwe I believe. Which is what I have.

I recently installed aftermarket wheel with airbag from Carnewal. I love it. I don't have any pics yet, but you can see it on the Carnewal web site: http://www.carnewal-europe.com/main.htm. I think he has like 3 sizes. I went with the largest 365 mm.

That is an aftermarket Raid brand steering wheel.

I went through a number of steering wheels. Ends up, IMHO, the four spoke wheel fits the car the best. However, the feel is poor. I sent one into Carsdream in Poland (http://leatherinteriors.carsdream.com/) and had it modified making it thicker, giving it grips, nice leather and stitching.

The company is Atiwe. I believe Ruf steering wheels are OEM by them.
