07 steering wheel fit on an 05 TL
Will an 07 steering wheel/airbag module swap easily with an 05 TL. I want the new steering wheel/airbag on my 05 TL, i'm trying to hold out until 2009 for a new TL so no, I don't just want to buy an 07 for those wondering.....

simple answer.. no
complicated.. yes.. but..
The 07 wheel has the MID/Info/Select/Reset buttons - which means there are new wires that need to be replaced, that also means you would have to replace the bezel behind the steering wheel - otherwise you'll end up with duplicate buttons and no one wants that
As far as the wires I guess because of the clock spring and what not you would have to get a new steering column as well?
Anywho, it's a pain in the ass I guess, I like the 3 spoke setup better but i'm not that brave

if he wants all of the buttons to work, then a new clock spring(cable reel) is needed
