The steps outlined in this guide will show us how to disassemble and replace the steering wheel and its airbag of the Volkswagen Polo. First, we open the hood and disconnect the battery as a precaution; then we proceed to disconnect and remove the airbag from the steering wheel, pressing on the back, as shown in the video.

At this point, we unscrew the central screw of the steering wheel to remove it, replacing it with the new one; we fix the steering wheel in a straight position on the steering column (aligned with the wheels), finally reassembling the steering wheel airbag, following the video tutorial until the end!
