Audi A3 steering wheel into VW Rabbit

Tried to install steering wheel from an audi A3 into a 08 Rabbit.
The Rabbit is just a vinyl wheel without controls. I swapped everything - the clock spring, steering module and wheel/airbag. The result was "no communication" of the steering angle sensor.
The shifters actually worked but the volume controls did not.

I installed the Rabbit steering module back into the car and now the steering angle sensor is working, but of course none of the functions on the steering wheel work.

This leads me to believe that the actual pin-outs on the steering module is different on the audi vs rabbit.

Is there a module that will make the audi wheel work correctly? Maybe from a GTI or TDI Cup car?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
