i got a tenzo steering wheel with a momo adaptor but i'm guessing its all the same. do you have airbags?
if so then you might wanna disconnect the battery so the airbag charge dies.
remove all the plastic you see around the stock wheel.
remove the screws around the steering wheel and the middle portion should just come out...disconnect the horn wires and the airbag wire.
forgot what size socket you need to remove the middle nut but you need an extension too.
after the nut is off go ahead and start pulling the steering wheel real hard in all directions and eventually it should slide right off.
put the new adaptor on and tighten the nut again.
connect the wires for the horn and tehn install the steering wheel being sure to align it right.
Thats all folks.

Yeah, its really not the best idea to take out your air bags unless its a track car. You've been forwarned

I believe its actually illegal to remove your airbags if its a daily driver.

Actually, i think that you don't have to even have airbags on your car because some cars have a switch to turn the air bags off. Apparantly it is for people who are short and drive, teh airbag could kill them b/c they are short.

It is illegal to remove or disarm any airbag without appproval of NHTSA. If a vehicle did not come with a switch to turn off an airbag, a form can be found at the NHTSA site to apply for an airbag switch to be installed.

I have yet to see anyone get charged for it, though.
