Question to those who have already installed the wheel... When you disconnect the battery, is it sufficient to just remove the negative cable, or do I also need to remove the positive one as well. I'd rather not have to touch the positive side if I don't have to. But, I also don't want the airbag going off in my face either.

Me too! Why would they need to remove the video? :shrug::shrug::shrug:

I need it like RIGHT NOW!

22mm Deep Socket
10mm
T-20 Torq Bit
Small Pick

Disconnect negative cable on battery
Use the pick to go through each hole on either side of the wheel.
Practice on the new wheel pushing the metal clip inward to release.
Remove airbag by pressing both clips and popping out the bag.
Release the wire harnesses for the wheel, airbag, and buttons.
Remove the 22mm bolt in the center of the wheel.
Reverse the steps to install new wheel.

You remove the negative because electricity flows from neg to pos in a DC system.

OK. I've gotten the airbag to release from the wheel. How are the two yellow airbag connectors released? Do the orange buttons press in or slide?

Never mind. I got it! You have to PULL UP on the orange part to release the airbag connectors. :doh:

Well I finally got mine and installed it yesterday. Levittown still has the order as processing, but there it was on my doorstep on Friday :cheers:

Some notes:
-The bottom trim piece is a pain to remove from the old wheel so make sure you have some kind of trim removal tool, or just wrap some pliers in a piece of cloth to pick it up from the bottom.
-Also the main bolt that holds the wheel clearly had some red thread-lock on it and I did not see this mentioned anywhere. Only had blue on me so I figured its good enough.
-The wheel will wobble until its completely tightened, I tightened it half way it it was very wobbly to a point that I thought something got caught in the way.

Other then that a very easy process which should take well under and hour.
