Hello Starter,

I replaced the steering wheel about three times (2 on the 987 and 1 on a 981) and to remove the wheel you only need two tools:

A small Phillips screw driver and a fairly large Torx (55..?) for the center bolt.

You need to insert the phillips into the hole at the bottom of the wheel to remove the airbag, pushing through the hole while pulling the airbag away, then unplug the airbag connector.

With the airbag out of the way you will use the Torx to remove the center bolt and pull the steering wheel away.

It should take you about ten minutes to swap the steering wheel.

Good luck!
