Technical Anyone know how to remove the Steering Wheel?

Disconnect the battery.
Wait at least 10 min.
On both side of the steering wheel there are small circle. Push a pin in ( I used torx screwdriver) and push the springs to release the airbag.
Disconnect the airbag connectors.
Then remove the center nut.
Remove the shrouds to get access the electrical connectors.
Remove the steering wheel from the shaft (rod).

Wow, ive been looking for this for ages! Thanks, im also going to give it a go tomorrow! (y)
 
Took me 2 days :bang: since I was practically going blind since no schematics nor youtube videos apply to the (I guess ancient) locking system that my 2009 Bravo wheel had!

(I'm replacing the wheel if I can get a new one from other Fiat cars (17mm hub), as the Bravo wheel doesn't seem to be in production anymore, can't find a new one anywhere.)

Here's how the tool has to go to unlock the 3 clips on each side:

youurayy, did you manage to find a replacement steering wheel? The clips shown in your photo look different to those shown in the image posted by stilos. It looks like there are 2 types.

I just bought a wheel that looks like yours (internally) to replace my existing one (2008 Bravo) it's the wrong one for the current airbag - dammit. I thnk I'm going to have to get another airbag to fit the new wheel.

Can anyone shed any light on the 2 different steering wheels for the Bravo?
