The steering column wiring comes right out if I remember correctly, once you get the steering wheel off, (not difficult) the whole electronic assembly is exposed, should be a couple of machine screws holding it down. You just unplug the connector down near your feet and then carefully pull it up through the steering column. I wedged the connector halfway up once, but if you tie a string around the connector tail, it shouldn't be hard to get it un-wedged.

If you want to get the steering wheel off, just undo the two screws in back behind the spokes and carefully pull the horn assembly apart. that should expose the wheel-mounting nut and you just use a puller....or if you're like me you put your feet on the floor and yank like hell, your call though.
