Removing Airbag - LotusTalk

mx1 · 07-05-2009, 12:32 PM

I'm removing my steering wheel, pls confirm that all I need to do is disconnect the battery.

Also, do you really need to buy new clips for the electical plug? Will duct tape work???

Thanks.

haha mx1. Trust me buddy. I wouldnt steer you wrong

Disconnect the battery.
Remove the two allen screws on the side of the wheel.
Take apart the green portion of the clip to the airbag than just pull the clip out from the airbag.
Than remove the second clip. Both clips are reusable.
Than the wheel itself is held on buy 4 more allen bolts.
