I have a 1995 Buick Regal And would like to know how Difficult it will be, as well as how to go about removing the steering wheel to replace the Turn Signal Switch.
I f I didn't have an Air Bag I wouldn't worry about it. But I've heard they are a pain to deal with. And the last thing I need is to deploy the Air Bag!

Thanks
Rick
Also is there a place to go online that doesn't charge(lol) to look at Schematics.

A lot depends on the column. Is it tilt or telescoping? You will at the least need a steering wheel puller. Disarm airbags by disconnecting the negative battery cable for 5 minutes! Get back to me on the column.

It's not too hard, but will take a few hours. You definitely need a steering wheel puller and a lockplate compressor to get the airbag spool out

Remember to disconnect the battery before you start so you won't set the airbag off by accident. Hope this helps -- DC
