Neat fix, had a similar problem (similar size we are) and used a modified flat bottomed wheel.

Fit is much better now.

Easy decision!

You can get new ones from the UK for around $750. I made a WTB thread and had multiple people send me messages...picked the best of the bunch and that was it. $500 later I'm in business.

I always find it ridiculous that the steering columns in our cars don't tilt/extend.

My 1997 Audi A4 had a tilt/extend column on it.

You get the 997 gt2rs intercoolers from autodocuk for cheap

Made some stuff, destroyed some stuff, had a good day.

Our cars have an extend feature just not a tilt.

Also not bad .2 ics are the denso units is that correct?

Mine telescopes only.

All stock 996 Turbo steering wheels only telescope.

TrillyPop

Stock or aftermarket steering wheel, they all do the same thing. The column is what telescopes.

Docwytes may not...

I said "stock" to cover my bases in case someone had modified the car to do otherwise (read: tilt.)

I said "steering wheel" because that's what Porsche refers to the adjustment as (page 33 in the owner's manual.)

I wonder how you would modify it to 'tilt' - there would have to be a knuckle (compact) in there , some how, that allowed free rotation of an already large steering wheel.

Dock

Who knows? Maybe a mechanism off of a 991 (it their steering wheels tilts, and I have no idea if it does.)

2fcknfst

T is correct, but it is the whole column that moves up and down, I think on the 996, the easiest way to do it would be right where the steering wheel attaches.

Sounds like an engineering project for someone.
