[s-cars] Re: FW: Steering wheel help

[Kneale Brownson]

The airbag module is held in place by a couple of Torx head screws (T-30,
if I remember correctly) available through openings on each side of the
back of the steering wheel.  I put the Torx driver in a 1/4" drive socket
in order to turn the screws because there's no room for a straight driver.
