They incorporate a rubberized cover with a slit to allow access to the two airbag locking springs inside the center compartment. (See figure 1). While facing the steering wheel, on either side, insert the long screwdriver into the hole. Step 2 You will access the locking spring by inserting your screw driver parallel to the wheel and perpendicular to the column. (See Figure 2).
This is the trickiest part: Make sure the flat head is always horizontal. You’ll have a better chance of pushing the spring mechanism. Step 3 Push this rod in enough and you’ll notice the round center of the wheel starts moving forward. At this time, you can reach in the gap and pull it back. You will probably have to alternate sides once or twice before you release the airbag (See Figure 3). Step 4 You should be able to pull the center unit back to expose the airbag compartment in (Figure 4).
