you will need the special torx screwdriver to unscrew the airbag.

You'll need some torx screwdriver attachments so you can remove the airbag from the side of the wheel (two access panels)....

they recommend that you unplug the battery and wait up to 5mins for the residual charge to die....

make sure you are static free since that is enough to set off the bag...(all according to the book)

You'll need a 19mm socket.... and that is about it to remove the whole mess.... there are a few clips and all but it is pretty much self-explanatory once you get there....

Uno Momento Por Favor... I have one more question... whats the best way to disable the SRS light? im assuming once you remove the airbag the SRS light will come on?
