Swapping steering wheel

Hi all, I'm wondering if I can swap my '04 SCab cruise only steering wheel with a spare '05 Lariat wheel I can get that has the cruise, radio and heat controls on it. I know that the heat won't work, since I'm not electronic, but are the radio hook-ups in there, and wat least will the cruise work as normal? I really just want the leather wheel, and am wondering if the other wiring is in there by default...

TIA!

The f150 store has color matched leather steering wheel covers. I'm going to be ordering one early next week. According to the info on 'em, it takes about an hour to install and they give your steering wheel an OEM leather look.

Check out wheelskins. You get a choice of one color, two tone, and/or perforated.

I think I'll try the other wheel first, I just don't think that the other options I'd be happy with. I like the factory look I guess.

Thanks though for the info. Maybe they'll be backup plans

I just installed the wheel skin the other day. These, IMO, are well worth the $32. It took every bit of an hour. Just take your time and make sure you stich every hole. I missed two and had to remove the thread half way back.
