how do I remove the steering wheel? i have to remove it - just the wheel itself. not the column.

 

take the plastic covers off each side
you can see that there is a bolt on each side, but you have to use a star tool to remove them
remove the yellow wiring clip for the SRS/airbag.

That's about it.

 

kool. so after i remove the SRS airbags, i can see the screws or whatever to take off and get the wheel off?

 

bumpety bump bump help please!

 

If the 3G Integra has a wheel like a 5G Civic, which it should, after you remove the airbag there is a large nut that holds the wheel on. Undo that, and you can sometimes pull the wheel off by hand. If not, you need a harmonic balancer/steering wheel puller.
