what i did was disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and left it for a good 10 minutes so the juice in the system wouldn't trigger the airbag when I tried to remove it.

Once all the power is out of the system, just disconnect the plugs (yellow in my case) and remove the airbag and the steering wheel. Just make sure you have the proper screwdriver, socket, and steering wheel puller.

Took me about 20 minutes (including the 10 minutes waiting) to do all this. It's very simple.

hardest part is lining up the new aftermarket steering wheel..

no matter how many times i've tried, its never perfectly straight. just gotta go get the wheel aligned at a shop afterwards.
