| I did one of these few years ago, go into the wiring near the fuse box under the steering wheel, unplug the two connection's undo the two bolts and it then pull slowly upwards pulling the cables through the centre part of the steering rack.  |

| Right, so. As I removed my steering wheel before, this snapped off.  So I've had to buy a whole new loom, one of these.  and just wondered how I go about changing it |

It's a wire from the horn/airbag. Remove the steering wheel by turning it 1/4 and looking behind it, there will be a hole on each side. 2002 onwards the airbag is clipped on and you poke a screwdriver in and give it a wiggle. Earlier airbags are bolted on. Can't remember what size bolts are though. |
