Removing steering wheel air bag

i am going to buy distronic pro and diy it. the web site did show how to install the control unit. but when it show how to remove the air bag, it not clear. they said there hole underneath the steering. but when i check my gla and coupe, both do not have any hole to push up the air bag unit.

​​​​​some youtube guide did mentioned we have to create the hole to push the air bag. is that true?

do anyone have the location or picture where is the hole?

there are 2 holes on the back side of the wheel. feel for it with your finger. it will be covered and yes you do need to puncture it.

if you have a pick tool that will work best. but anything long like a L shape tool will also work
