It's been confirmed Macan steering wheels are a direct swap in 997s, with an adapter required for 997.1s.
Besides the multi function buttons - are all Macan steering wheels plug and play (2014-2017?)? Are there any differences in airbag for that Macan generation?
From the parts diagram I'm seeing a difference in early and late Macans, and don't know if they made a change later that would prohibit this swap from happening.
There are also Panamera wheels of the same style - but no one has mentioned if they would bolt up.

all 2014-2017 wheels will work.

Some very early ones might not work. See old threads created by me. The airbag plugs were different on a macan (unsure if macan or some other Porsche) wheel I got. I had put pictures of the difference and best if buying used to verify with pictures.

is there a link or graph anywhere that shows which steering wheels are compatible with the 997.1 and/or 997.2 and if any other modification or adapter is required? I was sort of under the impression that the newer style wheels weren't compatible with the 997.1 without some sort of modification or adapter.

Long story - but I got my hands on two steering wheels. Don't need one if anyone wants to do the swap:
