What tools do I need to get that damn wheel off? I don't want to strip out the screws (?) in the back of the wheel that I can't see. Are those Torx? Phillips? Some outer-spacial new type of head?

Isn't there just one big MF'n bolt under the airbag area? Staring straight at you when the airbag's taken away? I could be wrong, never done it before.

I need to get the airbag off. What do I need to get the airbag off? The bag is still there. I don't want to destroy the wheel to get the bag off.

Found this:

1 disconnect neg. cable of battery. VERY IMPORTANT
2 remove 2 5.5mm (or 1/4"?) bolts behind steering wheel
3 carefully pull out airbag (2 tabs)
4 disconnect airbag plug
5 loosen bolt in center of wheel (15/16" socket) and tap with plastic mallet
6 remove wheel

Do I still need to be careful even though the bag is blown? :)

I couldn't figure out what type of bolts/nuts those were behind the wheel. I was trying everything... except 1/4" socket :)
