Steering wheel
I really wanna swap out my S5 convertible steering wheel for a S5 GXL steering wheel with no airbag. I think they look alot better and i dont really want the airbag anyways. Are there any write-ups for this procedure and if so where. Thankx

The FSM has the air bag disabling proceedure.
But the simple way is to simply disconnect the battery for at least 10 minutes. Press the brake several times while it is disconnected, then (while the battery is still disconnected) unplug the air bag harness at the steering wheel.
The wheel can then be carefully removed, and disassemblied.
Remember there is an explosive device in that wheel, so never hook it up to voltage while unbolted from the car
