To remove the steering wheel airbag on a Subaru Forester, loosen the screws located at the back of the steering wheel, one on the right side and one on the left side. Once these screws are loosened, detach the airbag from its housing to disconnect the connectors at the back.

After the old airbag is completely removed, insert the new one, connecting it to the connectors at the back. Finally, secure it by connecting the screws at the back of the steering wheel.
