Installing SL55 wheel on a 2004 SL600

I saw this and was curious if it would work on a 2004 SL600?

It should bolt on thats not the question. Its if you want the paddles to work than most likely no it will not work. There are more components needed to make it work. Dont quote me....this is what I have been told.
If we can get the paddle functions to work on a non paddle shift car...hell I would be all up on it! I would love to have that feature added onto my car.

I was told by the dealer that the old airbag dont work with this new wheel since its smaller?
The old airbag is to big and I would have to buy a new smaller airbag as well.
But if this works I would be very interesting as well!
I see that the wheel is located in Stockholm, Sweden where I live

Thanks Sunil for clearing that up!
I think I will buy it just to get that thicker wheel and dont use the paddle shifters.
One thing I dont like about the car right now is that bus stearing wheel..
