because the 991.1 MF wheel didn't come with paddles. you had to pick which you wanted. the Macan MF wheel had paddles and also a shorter pull.


this is a moot point now that the new 991.2 steering wheel has been redesigned.


and, no, you can't retrofit one of the new wheels on a 991.1. it's been tried and failed.

I have the MF wheels and got the Techart shift paddles). They work well but feel flimsy. I always flick them gently

it can be done, and multifunction works as well with an adapter! works across 997/987/991 etc as it was shared last week on the Facebook 997 custom retrofit modification forum.
