Its pretty easy, but you do need to pull the steering wheel off. Seems that getting the airbag out is the thing people struggle with the most, but it really isn't hard.

Disconnect + and - battery cables. Touch the cable ends together to discharge the capacitors
use the largest allen key that will fit into the small holes on either side of the steering column (behind the switches)
Push straight in towards the center of the steering column, you will feel the spring that clips onto the metal tabs on the airbag. Pry out with your fingers on the airbag while doing this.
From there you just unbolt the wheel and pull it off (newer cars use a TP50 torx +, do not use a standard T50 torx), then you can get to the screws that hold the switches in place and the plastic trim pieces.
