I have a 09 997 gt2. I want to install the cayman gt4 steering wheel. I know for a fact it fits perfectly. The only issue I have is how would I get the airbag to work?
The local dealer does not know the answer to this, so I was hoping anyone here could give me some advice..

I think getting the horn functioning is an issue with this swap.

Air bag light

I bought a brand new module from dealer and installed couple days ago myself and went to dealer today for programming but the air bag light never came on on the way there which 40 miles
so no programming for air bag
instead
I just reprogramm a spare key
I had and came back home no light on for total 80 mile s I believe it's all set
