Today we will explain how to remove the airbag from the steering wheel of the 2007 BMW 3 Series model e89. To carry out this simple operation, we need to insert a flat-tipped screwdriver into the lower hole of the steering wheel, which we will push inward to release the latch that locks the central body.

We then disconnect the central body from the connector to remove it completely, thus removing the airbag.

Before proceeding with this operation, however, it is necessary to disconnect the vehicle's battery to prevent the system from activating during its removal.
