Default How to remove horn button?

Going to purchase a new leather horn button/air bag and I'm wondering how difficult is it to remove OEM button and install replacement.

I will have Kalahari interior and I really like the looks of this button as it ties the interior colors together.

Here's a how to on painting the paddle shifters. The first two instructions deal with the horn pad. It seems pretty straightforward:

just so you should know when using a tool to get the horn pad to release you have to press like a **** then pull up on it slightly when you do the other side so it does not relock
