disconnect the battery for 10mins before you even attempt removal!!

in the back of the steering wheel there's 2 holes - turn the wheel 90degrees to get access. Airbag is held in with 2 spring clips, you need a small screwdriver in the hole to prise the spring aside in each one and release the airbag - the clip prises outwards away from the wheel centre.

yeah and this will also disable all your other airbags...you can either overcome this with a resistor or you can turn that airbag off with vag-com
