997 steering wheel configurations.

[Ashley Bowler]

In my search for a 997, I have noticed some cars have steering wheels with a round hub (air bag) and some have an almost triangular shape. Would someone explain the reason for the differences.

Thanks in advance.

The early 997s have the triangular center. The most recent - up to 2011 have the round center/airbag

triangular wheels, and then the round?

Weren't the "Launch Editions" in 2005 all round? Finally, is there a difference in the thickness of the wheel?

Thanks.

As far as I know all of the early 997's were the triangle shape. There was an option for a thicker steering wheel, but it is not much thicker; hardly worth changing steering wheels over.
