Going from air bag to no air bag

First off, the car is a 91 vert that i bought about 6 months ago. This is my first s5 so i'm not to familiar with all the other things on it that the s4 didn't have. The car came with a Grant steering wheel that i didn't really like so i got an s5 leather wrapped wheel. The car origianlly came with an airbag, but the steering wheel i bought dosn't have an airbag. Anyways, my friend bought me a brand new mazdatrix steering column surround as a gift for a non-airbag steering wheel, went to put in on and it dosn't fit. I figured it would be the right one since i am going with no airbag, but is see that i messed up. What parts do i need to make this coulmn surround work, or would it just be easier to dish out the $80 for the right surround? Thanks for the help.

Steve

The 91 verts have different stalks for the turn signals and cruise (they are on the column, as opposed to the dash), therefore they have a different column surround. It would still be considered an "airbag column" even though you are not running an airbag.
