Lightbulb Replace Steering Wheel Buttons

Hey there,

I'm a 3.4 LS. I only have the cruise control steering wheel buttons. If I found some 3.8 SS steering wheel buttons with radio control, such as this one (click here), would it be super easy to just pop out my old buttons and put all 4 new buttons in, or would it require a new wiring harness/routing new wires to my current radio?

Thanks!

I've searched around, the forums. Ran into a post similar to mine with the guy saying he only found a cruise control harness, while someone else said this with broken pictures:

an plug the main plug that has the radio & cruise wires..
Here's a pic.. I have a set of buttons with the wire for sale $50 shipped in USA









Just want to see if it is true that it's the same harness, and I just need to look deeper into the steering wheel for the radio wires that are unused.

Thanks again!

Would my steering wheel already have the connections ready for those extra buttons, or would I have to run wires through to the radio?
