DIY: Aftermarket Steering Wheel & Hub Install
#2
STEP 1 : OEM PREPARATION AND BATTERY
Ensure that you center your steering wheel before beginning installation and (most importantly) disconnect the battery. Allow some time to pass so the electric can drain out of the system. You can hold the brake down to assist this.
STEP 2 : REMOVE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
Pop the plastic covers off the side of the OEM steering wheel with a flat surface. This exposes the T30 tamper proof screws for the airbag assembly. Use a T30 tamper proof bit to remove these (if you have works bell items they provide the T30 tool, so don't buy a set like I did)
Slowly side the airbag assembly out. This is why the electric was drained. You DO NOT want this blowing up in your face.
Disconnect the airbag assembly wiring harness clips.

I like the two Personal wheels that I have a lot. They feel solid and more comfortable than the OEM. I also like that I can interchange either depending on my mood/driving. The paddles do feel a little further back but you can still easily blip them with you finger tips and I do not have giant hands.
