air bag removal, double check
from the tech article
Disconnect the Battery, positive (+) and negative (-) sides.
Locate your fuse panel, (usually under the drivers side dash) and remove the fuse for the air bag (Inf. Res.).
Now, keep your head to one side, (common sense, just in case) if you reach around the back of your steering wheel, you will find two hex bolts on each side. Remove them.
Please be careful, with those bolts removed your bag will pull easily from the center of the steering wheel, there is a wire there, (I have seen it yellow, and I have seen it green) you need to cut that wire, make sure you leave it long enough so you can reattach it if you want to later.
Put the airbag someplace safe, FACE UP. (Unless you want a hole through the ceiling if something happens).
on my fuse panel its says SIR not Inf Res im assuming thats the only fuse i need to pull. Just pulled the battery out of the car, going to wait 10 minutes because im not sure how long the capacitor can hold its charge for, then im going to unscrew the air bag and pull it out
EDIT: nevermind i got the bomb out unscathed
