Yes. The search function will find you a well-written DIY. The airbag spring release is the toughest part - you need to push HARD. Don't worry, with the battery disconnected (per DIY), there is no danger. After one time you could do it in less than 5 minutes if you have your tools all laid out in advance.
Looks great...I'm in the midst of talking with Don to get mine done.

Hey guys,
Thanks for all the info.
The steering wheel on my 2012 GTS looks thick like the one in the picture. It doesn't have the deviated stitching though.
Did the GTS model come with a thicker steering wheel as standard equipment?
Do you guys know the size of the new wrap, circumference for example?
Just trying to make sure that the mod in my case would be a tangible difference.
Cheers to all,

I just got my wheel back from Don at Dallas Custom Steering Wheel. One week turnaround, and $447, all in: for shipping, 1/8" of padding (the thicker option), complementing stitching and stripe. This is how the wheel should have come from Porsche. I highly endorse.
Dang, I wish I went with contrasting deviated stitching on my DCT wheel, but it's too late now. Oh well...

Just measured my circumference at 4 1/4 for theGTS wheel. How did you decide how much thicker you wanted it?
Do you remember the before measurement?
