Yes ... Piece of cake ..

Remove Airbag
Unplug harness
Remove bolt holding wheel on Column
Remove Wheel
Swap SYNC buttons from your origiinal wheel (if you have Sync)

Reverse to reinstall.

Nice! Do you happen to know if the BOSS controls work w/ NON-SYNC systems as plug and play? If so, I'll buy/trade a SYNC to non-SYNC button set....

Wheel is part cr3z-3600-aa .

From what I have read Base Model cars don't support steering wheel controls. Perhaps if you swap out the HU for a Shaker unit they would.

Okay I bit the bullet and ordered one from Nick. He said I was number 4 or 5 in line for the day lol. I guess it's a popular upgrade now. Hopefully I'll see it in a week or two.

For anyone looking to order one of these - we now offer them for $156
http://www.partscheap.com/2012-Musta...3z-3600-aa.htm

I would order pretty much right now though if you want to do this, as Ford will be raising the price on these to upwards of $300 after a few of them sell, and Ford loves to change the prices on these wheels out of the blue...

Update 7-15-11: The steering wheel's are already on backorder from Ford until August 22nd. Looks like you got all the ones that were out there.
Even worse news is that Ford will probably raise the price August 1st.
