Leave the battery disconnected for a while before trying to remove, two torx screws each side of the wheel to remove airbag.

Undo nut and wobble steering wheel to and throw, not much pressure is needed to release from splines and it should come off.

Are you replacing with a non airbag wheel? if so can't help on that as only replaced momo with an STI 8 wheel.

Do a search on the airbag mod, you need a resisitor across the terminals if going non-airbag, or the airbag light will come on all the time and that's now an MoT fail.

Hint: when removing old wheel, leave centre nut ON the threads about three turns. This stops the wheel coming right off suddenly and making painful contact with your nose........
