Need help!!!!! 997.1 steering wheel upgrade to 997.2

Hi guys I need some help here as I've read a few threads about changing the steering wheel from a 997.1 to a 997.2 steering wheel & it feels like the more I read about it the more I get confused about which way to go & what I need to purchase.
I've got a manual 997.1 with a multifunction wheel & I would like to change it to a 997.2 multifunction wheel so can somebody please tell me exactly what needs to be done for everything to work including the mf buttons, horn etc.
thanks in advance

this is a very tricky upgrade as every time i have seen someone do it there is a different method.
best idea is to find a shop that has done it before. i went to few different places including dealership and nobody got it right til i went to house auto

There's a good thread on rennlist, basically you need the wheel, airbag and wire harness. I believe the pwis needs to be used to activate the mf features.

Thanks for the response guys much appreciated. The only problem is that I'm from Sydney Australia so getting information is a nightmare
