Default MFSW into a 1996 4.2 Q?

Sorry if this particular question has been asked before.
Is it doable to retrofit a MFSW to a 1996 D2 4.2 Quattro? this car has not got sat nav fitted and just a radio cassette with multi CD fitted in boot.

The only reason I'm asking is that the old very basic steering wheel with no features on it is well past it's best, in short it looks a mess.I happen to have a spare MFSW in very good condition with controller I may have a slip ring for this steering wheel as well. I've looked through other threads including one written by 'IT' but the info contained seem to refer to much newer versions of the D2 fitted with tiptronic steering wheels, a feature my car has not got. Being a 1996 car it is blessed with the full loom, not too sure if that is a help.

I'm also unsure as to what if any of the MFSW features could be made to work. I just happen to have the required parts gathering dust on a shelf. As long as the airbag performs as advertised if or when needed I'll be fairly happy. That said, if I could control the volume of the radio that would be a bonus.

I look forward to your replies, thanks for taking the time to read this post.
