DONT BE YANKING ANYTHING
1 look at the back of the air bag there are two holes either side of it you will then need some trox keys once undone disconnect the plug going to air bag.
2 Once air bag is removed try to get the wheels as straight as possible and get some one to hold the steering wheel or log the steering wheel up then remove the centre nut job done remove steering wheel.
3 to refit it is just the reversal of removing it

Don't forget to disconnect the battery, or you'll get an Airbag fault light on the dash, as soon as the wires are seperated.

Don't forget that even a static discharge can set them off so I'd defo disconnect the battery...
