    Hello,

    I was hoping somebody could help with how to take off the left side cover of the steering wheel. Karma bit me in the a$$. I was getting fast food when the drink hit the top of the window and spilled everywhere. Now my audio buttons are sticky and I need to clean them. Thanks!

    I didn't click the link above so I don't know if that covers it, but heres how.

    You need to remove the airbag from the steering wheel.

    1. Disconnect battery.
    2. Remove the 2 covers from the back sides of the steering wheel.
    3. Using a T30 torx bit back out the 2 screws and pull off the air bag.
    4. If I remember correctly once the air bag is out of the way you should be able to remove a couple screws and pull off the cover you want to.

    Hopefully this helps a bit.
