Default Removal of the panels below the steering wheel?

Anybody have a DIY/video on how to remove ALL the panels below the steering wheel?

I've managed to pull of two, but the second to bottom last panel doesn't seem to want to budge.

That's the airbag, you need to remove the entire assembly (four 10mm bolts). If you want to actually take it out of the car make sure you disconnect the battery for at least 60 seconds before unplugging it. Also be careful with the double-lock connector, they are not typically sold separately.
