steering wheel/controls?

Toying with the idea of swapping steering wheels if the controls can be added/gained.

Do all the model levels come with the harnesses built in? Or would a whole new steering column need to be put in so that I can have the addition of the stereo controls from the Lariat model? SInce it has the HVAC controls too, does that mean that I need to convert the whole unit?

Is any of this possible or is it more expensive and more of a pain than it's worth?

I'll see if I can find the wiring diagram for you later and post the PDF for you.
For some reason I don't think it's going to be that hard. Do you already have
curse control? At the worst you may have to change the clock spring and the
wheel it's self. The problem is that is a expensive part.

Yes I have cruise control. Havent found a steering wheel yet, but just started looking. Have really thought about converting the hvac controls also. That auto functionality is sweet. .....if possible. Just have to find a donor.

If you find one get the clock spring also.
be careful with it. If you turn it too far
the wires inside it will fail and it won't
be worth a dime.
