You need a steering wheel puller. There's screws on the bottom of the wheel to remove the cover. That will give you access to the nut holding the wheel on. Remove the nut and then use the puller. You'll need something like this.

Make sure to mark the position of the steering wheel and shaft so you get the wheel back on straight.

what kind of wheel are you putting on? because you might want to think about how your going to install the horn and cruise control.

Yank, I didn't need a puller for mine.

But make sure it's centered and/or mark the position to make sure you get it on straight.

im putting on a ebay one for drifting the stock one is just way to big. it has the wires for a a horn im not sure what im going to do about cruise control. i took off two screws from the bottom of the steering wheel but it didnt seem to do anything. i dont want to break anything. my friend had a puller but i cant even get to the point where i take the nut off.

the steering wheel cover has one srcew on the bottom of it. then lift from the bottom of the cover and slide it up. from there the nut wheel be exposed and the 2 threaded holes for the puller. you will also need to take the bottom cover from the steering colum off so you can take the cruise control thing off.
