At the very least, you need to change the cover that goes over the airbag. Toyota doesn't sell the cover separately, but I've noticed that some ebay sellers offer the cover. Also, in regions where steering wheel controls are not an available option, the spiral cable (aka clockspring) needs to be changed to the one that has the three extra wires for the steering wheel controls.

Here is an ebay listing for a US one which doesn't support the steering wheel controls (just as an example). There isn't a part number for it, separate from the airbag. Try doing a search of ebay for your area searching for "Yaris airbag cover".

Any news on your search for swapping out the stock and getting the multi-function steering wheel?

^Nah man, Can't get the original one. I'm getting one but it's for a Vitz (Yaris hatchback) the dashboard design is different as compared to the one I have on my Belta.

It's an original OEM leather stiched multi-function steering wheel, it costs around 22,000PKR, which equal's to about $250-260. Here is a picture of it.

Is it from a Toyota Dealer? If you have a Part Number for it, it would be fantastic.........

@revolution no, it's not from a Toyota dealer. I'll try to get the part number.

What if I change my Steering wheel with the OEM one I've pictured above? Will it cause any type of problem? And can I change the Black plastic cover on the top, where the Toyota emblem is at? The reason is that the Steering wheel I am getting has a different pattern on it's plastic cover as compared to my Belta's.

Changing the plastic cover can be done, but might be tricky/dangerous. The plastic cover is riveted on with four large rivets, so they would need to be drilled out.

there is no illumination of the controls but its not a big deal because you can use them very easily

Okay, but how should it be drilled out?
