Mate of mine has a car with a airbag fitted and wishes to either upgrade to a more sporty one from the VW range or a smaller MOMO one, I wouldnt trust myself to do it just in cas eit blows up, so any advice would be appreciated, cheers

aslong as you dont put anything with any power into the plug they are safe as houses pal, the connector plugs are self earthed to prevent static ignition :thumb:

so i can just pull the old wheel off ?

Yes, carefully and after you've undone the big nut that holds it on. :thumb: :D

o also dont pull the slip ring apart, you wont be able to put it together and it work
