Well if you're handy with a soldering iron it might take you 5-10 min to rewire the new wheel. Basically what I did was I sacrificed my old wheel since it wasn't in the best of shape, and cut the old connector off the wheel with as much wire as possible.
Then on the new wheel I cut the new connector off as close to the connector as I could giving me the most wire possible.
Stripped the wires, soldered em together and electrical taped em back together in a single loom so it looks factory
This leaves you a few extra wires for the SWC on the right side of the wheel. To get those working you need 2 pigtails, part# is WPT440 I believe, there is an extra connector on the clock spring to pass the signal through, so you can wire those to the WPT440 pigtail on one end, and if going on an aftermarket head unit you simple put one wire to ground and the other to the input on whatever SWC adapter you are using, just follow setup for the adapter for whatever a 2010+ car uses.
If you are going to a stock head unit that should also be possible, simply repin the stock connector on pins 18 and 19 with the wires coming from the WPT440 and you should be ok. using this diagram as reference on the connector that looks like the one on the left, and it would be the two pins to the right of #20 in that picture
But from what I remember from when I researched it was that the SWC work on a stock shaker because its basically the same head unit used in some F150 trucks which had SWC, which incidentally is where that WPT440 connector comes from, and I'm assuming we share the same clock spring too since the connector is there and functional even on an 05
For info on the wires, I found this post on moddedmustangs

Or if you don't want to go there
Cruise Control Splicing:
Old Connector >>> New Harness:
white >>> gray
blue >>> brown
red >>> red (pwr)
green >>> black (gnd)
Music Controls: (this is the resistance between the new harness green and purple wires as each button is pushed)
Music Icon = 510 ohms
VOL (-) = 50 ohms
VOL (+) = 120 ohms
|<< = 335 ohms
>>| = 210 ohms
Phone Controls: (this is the resistance between the new harness yellow and blue wires as each button is pushed)
Speaker Icon = 50 ohms
OK = 335 ohms
Phone Icon = 510 ohms
So basically the green and purple wires are for the volume controls and stuff and the yellow and blue are for the phone controls/sync controls.
On the boss wheel this wasn't an issue because it doesn't have sync or phone controls, so it was just wiring for the music controls, if you wanted all of them to work I'm sure with a resistor or 2 you can make it all work.
Yea I did a buttload of research when I did this swap lmao
P.S. I made this writeup myself lol
