Access to custom field in user registration wizard

I have created a simple CreateUserWizard to register my users. I've added 2 TextBox : LastName and FirstName.

Now, I would like to add them in my database when the user is registrated. Here is what I've done :

<asp:CreateUserWizard ID="RegisterUser" runat="server" EnableViewState="false" OnCreatedUser="RegisterUser_CreatedUser" RequireEmail="false">
  <WizardSteps>
    <asp:CreateUserWizardStep ID="RegisterUserWizardStep0" runat="server">
      <ContentTemplate>
        <asp:TextBox ID="LastName" runat="server" ></asp:TextBox>
        [...]
        <asp:Button ID="CreateUserButton" runat="server" CommandName="MoveNext" Text="S'inscrire"
          ValidationGroup="RegisterUserValidationGroup"/>

And in the .cs file :

 protected void RegisterUser_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
   TextBox test = RegisterUser.FindControl("LastName") as TextBox;
   // Or using the generated ID
   TextBox test2 = RegisterUser.FindControl("MainContent_RegisterUser_CreateUserStepContainer_LastName") as TextBox;
 }

But whatever I try, my TextBox is always null...

Did I miss something ? How could I get the value of these TextBox ?

Edit : This solution worked for me :

(TextBox)RegisterUser.WizardSteps[0].FindControl("CreateUserStepContainer").FindControl("LastName");

The only problem is I found the container name "CreateUserStepContainer" by using the debugger...

you have to find the control from CreateUserWizard.CreateUserWizardStep.ContentTemplateContainer.control
do like this:

 TextBox test = (TextBox)RegisterUser.RegisterUserWizardStep0.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("LastName");
