steering wheel help...please

[lambo7]

I need to take off my steering wheel, but it has a airbag. could someone PLEASE give me a step by step guide to do this job....THANKS.

Yep

You need to have the wheel turned so you can get to the 2 screws at the back first. Disconnect the battery and I left it for half an hour then started. Then unscrew the 2 screws holdong the airbag on with a torx driver. Disconnect the wire leading to the airbag and in your case the horn as well. Then with a torx socket undo the bolt holding the wheel in and pull opposite sides of the wheel to pull it off. Then hitting each side of the new wheel with your hands till the wheel sits flush and true. Then its just a reverse of taking it off.

Hope that helps, if not I can copy what Haynes say, but that worked for me.
