THE TOOTH

Has anyone changed their steering wheel themselves? I have an 05 6, and I wanted to swap my steering wheel for the one in the pic below. It's pretty much the same thing. I was wondering what tools and what not I need to do the job. Also, how hard was it to do, and some pointers that I might need. Thanks guys...

hi there, i changed my steering wheel this summer. all i used was a screwdriver( to get the airbag module out) and a big socket and driver for the nut holding the wheel on. First step is to disconnect the battery. I then took off the airbag and disconnected it's wires. Next i loostened the nut, easier to do with 2 people, one holding the wheel. important tip, don't take the nut off all the way, leave it on a bit cause the last thing to do is sit in the drivers seat and pull/slam your hands against the wheel towards yourself until it comes loose. If you took that nut off the wheel would hit you!
