Im wanting to take out the standard SRS clio steering wheel and fit my millenium steering wheel, ive got the momo boss for the airbag clio, so i have the airbag wiring to keep the car thinking everythings in order.
But i havent had the cahonés to make a start removing it, seeing as no one will touch it for me and the lad at renault who sold me it said i was fookin nuts, im gonna have to do it myself.
Ive only ever removed non airbag wheels so i know how to do it but this airbag scares the bejesus out of me.
I hate the bloody things.
So would someone be able give me a lowdown on what im gonna have to watch out for and a guide to do it?

Ta very much

airbags are easy to take out, like sporty boy said, they normally just unbolt and unplug.

i would disconnect the battery first, so the capacitor for the airbag system discharges
