Anyone know what size torx bit for airbag removal ?
I located a fairly new OEM steering wheel and I'm almost sure the 2 holes in the back of the wheel keep the airbag in place.

As in other MBZ's these are held on using torx bolts....has anyone done this and if so what size head do I need to get ?

I don't currently have a long shaft torx .

Thanks in advance.

PS- any other tips would be appreciated...other than disco the battery.

Airbag removal
The T30 Torx bit must be a long shaft, about 3". Use a 1/4" drive ratchet wrench.
