Wylie has it right!  :)

Yeah, I'd like to retain the airbag.

I *guess* I could try the stealer, but the clockspring itself is some
huge expense.  I'd rather get it all used, LOL.

Then there's the trip computer issue - I don't even know where to go
with that.  I guess if I ever buy the car and replace the wheel...
