Would anyonehappen to know if a matrix steering wheel with audio and cruise control will work for our yaris?

Looking at some ebay pics - They might fit, but you would also need the airbag to go along with it. Also, you could use CC or audio controls, but not both since the Yaris clickspring doesn't have enough wires for both.

thanx ct scott!! i think i will buy it because i really want the audio controll. But do you mean that i wont be able to use the call button? will it be hard to run some extra wires?

If you are looking to use it for audio, there are enough wires for the radio control side, but not for the phone side. To add those you would need a clockspring with more wires. One from an audio controls equipped European Yaris would work, or possibly one from a 2012 Yaris, which now support both cruise and audio.

Before you buy it, see if you can get a seller to send you a close-up picture of the center of the back of the wheel, so we can see if the splines are the same.
