Default Will pulling 2007 steering wheel be difficult?

I am ready to replace my steering wheel. Should my 2007 coupe give me a hard time? I guess rent a puller is necessary.

Don't think so, just replaced my wheel with D shaped one from Redline Goods and all I had to do was remove nut, rock it side to side while pulling. Popped right off. Took longer to get the ***** to remove airbag than it did to pull wheel.

Just make sure to pull the fuse first. Air bag explosion is a possibility and you don't want that to happen. I know many don't do it, but I'd rather not read it happened to you.

Not hard at all. Watch the two links that RW posted and you should be fine. Like anything else pay attention and take your time. Be very careful with the two small clips that go on the air bag harness. They hold the harness in place and complete the air bag circuit. Do not lose or damage these clips.
