    Hi guys,

    my wife's 206 steering wheel is pretty badly worn (previous owner loved
    big bejewelled rings!) and we have purchased a replacement steering
    wheel (same year: V reg & model: 1.4 glx)

    we have disconnected the battery and are aware of (and have the codes
    for) the stereo and am now ready to replace the rear part of the
    steering wheel but could do with some guidance on how to remove the
    front of the steering wheel and the airbag - safely.

    the airbag and current front of the steering wheek thats currently in
    the car will be reconnected to the replacement steering wheel as will
    the front of the steering wheel

    any guidance greatly appreciated

    cheers, jon

    older ones were retained by two tx30 screws accessed through holes in the
    back of the wheel

    If you look at the back of the wheel, you'll see a small hole at six
    o'clock. Push an appropriate sixe flat bladed screwdriver in the hole
    until it contacts a sprung piece of metal. (Look on the new wheel for
    guidance) Just push upward and the airbag will spring off. Do this
    with the ignition off. There is no need to disconnect the battery.
    Unclip the connectors to the airbag. Make a note of the position of
    the flat black one to put it back in the same place. Then undo the
    large centre bolt (55 torx, small extension and large bar). Hit the
    wheel at opposite points with the palms of your hands to shock it
    loose and pull off. Make sure the wheels are straight ahead, and the
    steering wheel is straight, so that it goes back on straight.
