New Steering wheel

Could someone please give me detailed instructions on how to install my new steering wheel on my manual 2008 GTS from removing the airbag to replacing it on the new wheel?

I have tried to get advice from another Porsche forum without much success. The information given to me was vague and incomplete.

I'll post pictures of the wheel installed when I'm done.

Thanks.

Actually alcantara and carbon fiber.

I think that I'll just pay the dealer to do it for me.

Thanks

It's gotta be a pretty simple install for the dealer.

BTW, very nice looking! I want a new one. I hate the leather wrap because my hand always slides.

I had my wheel swapped by my local tuner. Costs was reasonable - 2 hours labor.
If your not happy with a dealer quote, check anyone who works on P cars in your area.

It's pretty simple to do but sometimes can be a bit frustrating when they are locked in and are stubborn to release. Any links to the steering wheel? As others have said, nice selection.
