Just lastnight brought on of trademe for $375nzd and was now wondering how much of a mission it is to fit... I assume theres screws behind it and pretty much just keep taking stuff off until my old wheel comes off..?

Any advise/tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks Ben

Yes mate you will need a torx bit to remove the wheel. please make sure you disconnect the battery and turn on your headlights to discharge any remaining current otherwise you may wear an unwanted airbag to the face.

T30 TORX BIT. Turn the steering wheel 90degrees and you will see one screw,then turn 90degrees the other way and you will see the other screw. Pull the airbag off and unplug cruise and radio switches and airbag. Loosen off t50 torx bit then wiggle steering wheel off before completly taking t50 bolt out.Hope this helps.

no mate it dose not need t come off.. only thing you touch is the wheel.. there are 2 screws on the back side of the wheel on either side and they are T30 size bit and the main one for the steering colum when you get the air bag off that is a T50 size bit mate..

I changed mine over a few weeks ago :beerchug:
