i have the official dvd at home with instructions but don't know off the top of my head. obviously you will want to disconnect the wiring and fuses. are you sure the air bag needs to come out to fix the horn?

situation 1:
when you use the key fob to lock the car, does the horn toot?


situation 2:
when you press the steering wheel horn switch location, do you hear the relay?

is it a 3 spoke or 4 spoke steering wheel? heres how to remove the airbag/entire steering wheel for a 4 spoke. they say for the 3 spoke its a little different, there apparently is a safety tab inside the hole that releases the airbag (on the back side of the wheel) that needs to be pushed to the side so that you can slip a screwdriver in and press the air bag release.
