Default Steering wheel swap?

Is it possible to put an 07+ steering wheel with the radio controls on an 05?

yes, it is possible. you have to also change the airbag "clockspring" under the wheel. the radio controls won't work though. good luck in finding one. i have been looking for over a year. a better choice is to find a 07 wheel from a 6 speed manual trans with no controls. what makes this swap so expensive is the air bag.

Don't bother, you will never use the radio controls. I don't. They are on the right side, where your hand seldom is. Plus they are small and inconvenient to use.
