disconect the airbag.....remove the screws behind the steering wheel so the center comes off.....lock the steering wheel and undo the nut in the centre....you may need a wheel puller depending on how much of a beeotch it is....hope that helped

I had to get my moms 95 escorts wheel off to change something behind it. The wheel puller broke on the first turn. If you get mad enough they will come off without it, trust me. :dead:

I found the right sized flathead screw driver works.
