Default Steering wheel install

Just got my new Caravaggio wheel in today. My question is the sticky says to remove the air bag there are two holes on the sides. On the new wheel there are no holes on the sides just in the back. Anyone have any pictures they can share??

The holes are in the back of the wheel. Somewhere around the 3-9 and 2-10 clock position. They release the airbag. As Robert said make sure you disconnect the battery and wait approx 10 mins.

After you disconnect the battery, keep the brake pressed, helps discharge faster.

My dealer only charged me 1/2 hour for the labor. I am better safe than sorry.
