Default 3 spoke steering wheel

Hi

I'm installing a 3 spoke steering wheel on my car and need the torque value for the big nut that bolts the wheel to the steering column. The torque values for the 2 smaller bolts holding the airbag is available on p-car workshop but not for the big nut. Thanks

What did you use for a 3-spoke? I'd like to do this mod one day but want airbag version.

I used a 3 spoke from a 996.

My torque wrench only goes down to 12 Nm. Should I get one that goes down to at least 10 Nm to tighten the Airbag bolts? Or, would hand-tightening them be okay?

Hand tightening should suffice...
