There is talk of a 2.8 Ohm 0.5W resistor required for the airbag delete on a 996 for steering wheel replacement. I am having trouble finding a place to buy these at this specific rating.

Firstly can anyone confirm this is correct i.e 2.8ohm and not 2.8Kohm for example?
And secondly, where can these be purchased?

Also if deleting the door and pax Airbag; is this also the correct resistor to use.

If it helps this picture shows the a resistor needed (albeit a 2.7ohm variant)

Don't worry guys, just dug out a 5 band resistor code chart and have ordered x500 from Hong kong (the wonders of ebay).
If anyone is ever looking into this a 2.7 or 2.8 Ohm 0.5W resistor is the correct one as per the pic above.

No idea what's required in the car, but I can answer most questions about resistors, if anyone has any...
