Who manufactures the switches on the 991 Cup Car steering wheel? The 997 were Knitter or NKK, I've forgotten. I'd rather not buy the $2k panel (which I already have) just to get the switches.
If you know and also sell them I'd be happy to purchase them from a Rennlister. Please simply email/PM me.
Looks can be deceiving. I found them. They are APEM IP series, weather sealed momentary button switches. Depending on your volume order, they are about $14 each. So, over a hundred bucks worth of buttons on each wheel.
can you toss upa link to the units and where you boughtt them? i have an additional accessory or two id like to add, would iek to get buttons that look factory. txh.

The last digit in the part # is the color.
Thanks but that doesn’t seem to be the same model. Looks similar though.
Only difference is the flat top, but they are the same or better quality switch. I see you are chicago based? I have two '17 GT3r's in the shop, more than welcome to stop by and check out the switches in person,

I did some digging and those are OTTO P7, definitely a high quality switch and weathersealed like the APEM IP with the benefit of MIL spec qualification. There are a couple of nuanced differences like contact bounce and initial mΩ contact resistance too which makes the different enough. Thanks for the invitation and I'd love to nerd out on your inventory. I'll drop in this week. Who should I ask for?

^ Nice job! Looks as if you are using this for a street car. Is the wheel still a QR? If so, how are you managing all the wiring? Also, what is the “bridge” up top? Looks like a cool set-up!
Thanks!
Yes, used on street car through custom clock spring with additional ribbon wires. Has enough for 7-20 independent functions with the range depending on which system/module is being tapped. Potential for 20+ dependent functions if using additional relays.
The bridge is on the CF back plate supporting the Ecliptech P2+. Space between is for visual OBC access.
