Anyone out there got instructions how to remove the steering wheel horn cover. Don't want to touch the airbag just the grey cover (basically replacing the bottom steering wheel spoke cover). Smile

Any help would be much appreciated.....! Embarassed

I'm not scared anymore. I was when I fitted my JCW Steering wheel but to be fair once the battery is disconnected the Airbag is pretty safe. See you at the pub meet then

Can't you just take the surround off, rather than the whole thing? I thought it was going to be straight forward when I brought it, didn't think you'd have to disconnect the battery etc. Rolling Eyes

Unfortunatley not, if you look the spoke cover actually disappears under the Airbag and it is all one unit
