Replace wiper stalk

Hey guys so my wiper stalk had broken a few months back and I finally received my replacement for it after ordering a used one off eBay. Now that I have the replacement part I have no idea how to replace it. I know I have to take off the airbag and the steering wheel but what else does this job entail? Anybody know?

I would imagine that once you got the wheel off it would be fairly obvious. Can't think there would be too much to it.

I've taken the wheel off my old 3 and it was all pretty straight forward.

One way to find out

Just make sure you don't turn the car on with the airbag not connected as you'll get an error.

Have fun.
