remove airbag, making sure to follow the "discharge" procedure.
remove steering wheel, remove plastic cover over steering column, then unbolt/disconnect the switch.
its a fair bit of hassle, i recommend getting a helm manual or at least a chiltons/haynes.

Pretty easy job, no need to remove airbag. Refer to post # 4 in the following thread:

This is when having no airbag comes in real handy.

Yeah, and it's not real hard at all. Just make sure you take all the screws out and use a magnetic bowl so you don't lose them.
