Default Multifunction steering wheel

Hi guys. I currently have a Tiptronic steering wheel with no multifunction. I want to convert my current Tiptronic wheel into a multifunction Tiptronic wheel using this:

http://www.suncoastparts.com/product/997MFSWX.html

I plan to use Joycon and use the multifunction buttons to control a Nexus 7 tablet that I will use as my navigation/audio system. My question is: where can I find a wiring diagram so that, in the attached pictures, I can identify each wire by color and what it does. Thanks!

See here for 2006 C2S/C4S wiring diagrams

Thanks Semicycler! I can't make out anything on those diagrams. It's too complicated for me, and doesn't appears to identify wires by colors. Anyone else?

Colors are indicated.

No offense, but if you can't read a schematic, interfacing to the switch module to control a third party tablet is going to be a challenge.

See page 2 in the PDF schematic, color code is in the lower left of the page.

Your top photo is "Remote Control Left", eight wires from left to right in the photo:
A8: Grey with Green (Tiptronic)
A7: Black with Black (GND)
A6: Grey with Red (DATAS)
A5: Yellow with Yellow (Term 58 D)
A4: Blue with Blue (Rotating Speed)
A3: Brown with Brown (Direction of Rotation)
A2: Red with Yellow (5V supply)
A1: Red with Yellow (5V supply)

Your bottom photo is "Remote Control Right", seven wires from left to right in the photo:
A8: White with Green (Tiptronic)
A7: Black with Black (GND)
A6: White with Red (DATAS)
A5: Grey with Green (Term 58 D)
A4: Brown with Black (Rotating Speed)
A3: Red with Red (Direction of Rotation)
A2: Red with Yellow (5V supply)
A1: no connection

I'm not entirely familiar with Joycon but take a closer look at these wires on the schematic for interfacing to Joycon:
power: 5V supply (A1/A2) and Ground (A7)
resistor switches: DATAS (A6) and TERM 58 D (A5)
wheel: Rotation Speed (A4) and Rotation Direciton (A3)

Colors are indicated, but to be fair the text on page 1 of the doc is so inflated, its almost impossible to read. Try reading the wire labels on the page 1 wires. I imagine he figured the other pages were just like that (and why not). Its hard to differentiate an H from a W with that line thickness in the strokes.
