3-spoke steering wheel conversion

I'm about to snag me a 3-spoke steering wheel from a Jetta WE. Unfortunately, there's no airbag with it. Does anybody know how much trouble/costs it would be successfully make the conversion?

You can get the airbag for around $300 from the dealer. Other than that you just need a socket insert for the 12mm "triple square" nut that holds the wheel onto the steering column. It's a pretty quick swap once you have everything you need.

Will the airbag from a regular 4-spoke steering wheel work with the 3-spoke?

No. They are shaped/sized differently.
