yes. 997.1. I don’t have all the part numbers but I do have some of the trim part numbers. Basically I got a 991.2 bare wheel from eBay, the one spec I wanted and then bought the aluminum trim, the black inserts, The rear inserts, and the rear cover separately and also got the airbag separate. I got most of the trim from Porsche dealers and the airbag on eBay. The airbag is pretty universal for all 991.2 variants, Macan, Newer Cheyenne, etc.
i'm in the process of doing this now for my 997.1. I have everything but the harness and airbag. Any chance you have the part number on the harness you used? Did the metal retainer come with it? I cant find a P/N for that and want to make sure i have everything i need. Airbag/harness will be ordered through Sunset but havent heard back from Luke yet on this yet (and havent chased either). Any help is much appreciated!
Wheel i'm working on about half complete and stock pics below for reference
Where did you order this from? I thought they weren't available.

Here is the label from the box with the part number. No other parts were required to do the replacement. I had a dealer do the install (I wasn't prepared to work with an airbag).
There are some very tasteful steering wheels and interiors on this thread. On the other hand I hope some of you have kept your original pieces and parts - finding someone with your same taste may be a long wait. resale may be challenging.

There are plenty of used steering wheels available for sale for either a seller or prospective buyer. I can’t see a steering wheel being an impediment to a sale given it’s such a quick and easy transition.
I have the leather MoMo Mod.07 in mine. I absolute love it. It not only transform the look of the interior but also improve the driving position for me. The smaller diameter of the steering wheel also makes the steering feel a bit heavier which I like.
Very clean and tasteful. Can I ask what size wheel this is? I have a 350mm Montecarlo on order right now and hoping I made the right choice in size.

I owned this car before you. Congrats. She was always loved and maintained with an open check book.
Agree that it would look out of place if you have no other CF trim. I actually wrapped my trim in Alcantara to match the wheel. Wrapped the airbag too. Royal Steering Wheels in the UK did the SW wrap. From my 987.2:
How is an airbag supposed to puncture through that alcantara? Feels unsafe?
The plastic and even leather in factory cars' airbags is made very thin at those points
