Steering wheel change - problems

Hi all,

I have an CLS 350D 2018 that I like very much.
I have found a new generation of steering wheel that I bought and put it on my car.

the new steering wheel
I checked only the right panel on the steering wheel, it worked, I said good, so I put everything in place.
At the end, I saw that the left side of the steering wheel is not working.
Went to Merc shop for coding, they could'nt do it because of an error unknown (been there), the guy was really helpfull.
My problem is that I cannot even take out this steering wheel (different type of access to airbag) so any help is well received.
Thanks,
DB

Finally, after a lot of strugle, I did it.
Very difficult task, so take good care.
Not possible to code it for my CLS C257, so not compatible?
Hope that helps.

IMHO the new steering wheel is not as sporty/aggressive as the original one as part of the AMG package.

So, i have found that the new steering wheel is for 2021/2022 models (code 802/803), my car has only for 2020 year (code 808/800/801). Any chance to make it work? I searched a lot but they are saying that the adapter for the steering wheel wheel not give you all functionality like the old one. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks
