Default DIY: Aftermarket steering wheel with cruise control.. HELP?

Okay, this is a REALLY confusing one...

I am in the process of adding cruise control functions to an aftermarket steering wheel for switching between tuning maps & using cruise control.

I will make this a full DIY after I find out the answers I need...

When I bought my car there was an aftermarket steering wheel with no cruise control buttons & just the bare plugs as seen in the pictures, There is nowhere to plug these plugs into, so I am stumped after hours of research and reading page after page from the service manual I have no idea...I need to have a pro answer the following questions for me:

1. Identify what all the plugs are for there are four total....
2. Once we know what all the plugs are for we need to Identify what the wires that go into the plugs from the harnesses are for what... (aka I know that the olive wire in the gray plug is for the horn)

>> Once I identify what all the wires are I can re hook up the cruise control by inserting the wires in the correct terminals.

>>Please HELP!!!

Bump:

I have been searching myself and have not come across anything (web & YouTube).

There is several companies that sell the relocation kit (SOHO, Steering Solutions, GKTech) for the stereo and cruise control buttons when going aftermarket steering wheel.

What I am noticing is you have two options when going aftermarket steering wheel:

1. You either wire it up for the horn with the provided hardware included in your kit (hub, quick release, steering wheel).

or

2. You use the oem harness for the stereo and cruise control buttons that you would use with the relocation kit to bolt up to the hub, quick release, steering wheel and not be able to use the horn.

Please note that this is the way the kits are provided however, I believe there is a way you can splice, tap, solider, etc the correct wires to make this all work together and function like it should.

If anybody has any information please point me in the right direction, much appreciated.

I am planning on calling SOHO, Steering Solutions, GKTech to ask how they did it and or if they can provide me some sort of guidance.
