Aftermarket Heated Steering Wheel

This is a question for one of the sponsors on here..

I own a 2005 Infiniti FX45......I was wondering how much work (how much cost) it would be to swap the heated steering wheel from the newer Murano, FX, Maxima into the older vehicle.

I personally like the design of the newer steering wheel better, as well as the heated feature is very nice to have for winter.....yes I realize I can wear gloves.

Can this be done for ~$500? ~$1000? would like it to look as OEM as possible.

I would really have to take a look at it. I am concerned that there is no harness, plug, button or control module in the older vehicle so activating the heater control itself in the newer wheel could be an issue. A lot of newer cars' electronics are data controlled too which presents an even bigger challenge. Also, airbag molexes may be different although not as big of a deal to fix that.
