Default Adding steering wheel controls with aftermarket head unit?

I had an 08 without steering wheel controls and just got a 2012+ wheel to replace it with steering wheel controls

I read that if I want to add controls I need a new clock spring but that was for a factory head unit

I have a Pioneer App Radio 4

Can I get an adapter and wire this up or is it more trouble that it's worth? If I have to get a new clock spring I don't need the controls
THanks

Unless you want to add an aftermarket wire external to the steering column you would need a new clock spring to add SW controls to any HU.
