How do you remove the steering wheel airbag from the Smart 451?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Airbag

The removal of the steering wheel airbag on the Smart 451 can be done by disconnecting the plastic covers located at the bottom of the steering column: in this way, it will be possible to disconnect the underlying connectors and also unscrew the screws at the back of the steering wheel. This will allow the steering wheel to be completely removed from the column, so that the screws fixing the rear plastic panel can be unscrewed: by removing this panel, the additional screws underneath that secure the airbag can be loosened. Finally, the airbag will be disconnected from the center of the steering wheel and a new one will be connected and fixed in place.
