How To Swap Steering Wheels

So, I had my 2013 Wheel refinished in Alcanterra and it looks fantastic. I paid my BMW Mechanic to install my LCI wheel. I am about to sell the LCI wheel and put my 2013 back on.

Is it as easy as it looks?

Any pitfalls?

Got one problem...horn won't work. Is it that tiny plug on the airbag that plugs into the top of that vertical clip? If so it was busted a little by my BMW mechanic must have done it when swapped them initially.

Putting the LCI wheel and airbag up for sale this evening.
