Question
how do i remove airbags from drivers side. i was told i would need a torx 30  to remove two bolts from behind steering wheel. my steering is a m5 wheel, and also how would i remove air bag from passengers side dash board thank you

Answer
For both, DISCONNECT BATTERY FIRST.

DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FIRST.

DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FIRST.

Second part of the job:  Recheck that you disconnected the battery.

For the steering wheel, you need a torx to come in from the back and remove it.  Not familiar with the M5 steering wheel, but it's likely the same.

Not sure on the passenger side.

Why would you want to remove them?
