How to Remove the Steering Wheel of a Porsche Boxster

Model: Porsche Boxster 986, MK 1 - Years 1996-2004
Part: Steering wheel

Before you begin, sit in the driver seat of your Porsche Boxster. Start by unscrewing and removing the screws that secure the airbag to the steering wheel. Next, disconnect the airbag electrical connector, and then remove the airbag from the steering wheel. This will expose the nut that secures the steering wheel to the steering column. At this point, unscrew and remove the nut, and then detach and pull the steering wheel off the steering column. Once you complete this step, you will have successfully removed the steering wheel from your Porsche Boxster.
