switching steering wheel airbag removal danger?
Hi guys, I've purchased a new M sport wheel and was curious just how big a danger is it to remove the airbag? I know to disconnect the battery for about 20 minutes before hand. Watched a video or two. Should I be standing to side when I do this lol?

Had my steering wheel off several times. Hardest part is catching the 2 springs just right to release the air bag/wheel centre.

Yeah it freaks you out the first time you do it knowing how explosive that thing is, but I have done it twice already and I was fine. I leave my battery disconnected for 30 minutes before I touch it because I'm paranoid.
