I believe that you have to stick a skinny flat screw driver on the shaft behind the steering wheel.. You can feel a soft small round part there. Its a clip or spring pin that holds the airbag.

you have to punch a hole into the leather on the sides of the steering wheel. if you look behind on the sides you will feel the hole/indent. you can use flathead screwdriver. stick it in all the way the move the pin to break the airbag loose.
