Only difference that I'm aware of is the airbag's fastening method. The older ones (IIRC) used screws, while the newer ones (as the two listings you linked) use springy bars/clips.
Look for holes vs slots at the back of the current wheel, but a 2006 model ought to, AFAIK, have the slots.
Not sure whether the electrical connectors for the airbag would be compatible if you got the different model wheel, complete with airbag, compared to what you have.

I'd be wary of the compatibility chart on that car as it seems to allow 1999 and 2006 ... which isn't right.
But mtempsch is right. The later wheel you want is the one with rectangular slots on the back to unclip the airbag, not the screw on type. Which that one looks like it is the later wheel.

I have an excellent leather steering wheel here if you are looking to take it off my hands. Drop me a PM if you're interested.
