How to remove the Mini Cooper steering wheel

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Steering wheel

Remove the steering wheel of the Mini Cooper? Let's remove the steering wheel together with the airbag and replace it. Before disassembling the steering wheel airbag, we disassemble the battery clamps. We insert the disassembly keys / screwdriver into the slots of the rear of the steering wheel and unscrew the tightening screws. Once the airbag is released, disconnect the power supply terminals and remove it from the steering wheel. We unscrew the large central pin and remove the steering wheel from the barrel. We fix the new steering wheel and screw the nut, then, we connect the clamp of the airbag power supply and we screw the clamping screws into the rear part of the steering wheel.
