How to remove the steering wheel of a BMW Z3

Model: BMW Z3 MK 1 - Years 1995-2002
Part: Steering wheel

Before we can begin, we will have to go and sit in the driver's seat of our BMW Z3, and then rotate the steering wheel ninety degrees to the left, thus reaching the rear screws that secure the airbag. So let's start by unscrewing and removing these screws, and then we will have to extract the airbag from its housing. Once we have extracted the airbag, we will have to disconnect the relative connector, and then remove the airbag itself. At this point, we will have reached the nut that fixes the steering wheel to the steering column, which we will have to unscrew and remove. When we have finished this step, we will be able to remove the steering wheel, and we will have successfully completed the disassembly.
