So bottom line is I can't do it unless I change the steering rack?
You will need to make changes for sure, I suspect the rack, possibly the column and some associated electronics also - likely component protection issues - you would need to study the differences in ELSA, including the wiring diagrams to get a clear view - but in short, likely to be a big job!

Also given your suggestion of tweaking I'd worry about liability and insurance also!
