96-98 Passanger side air bag cover removal?

Disconnect BOTH battery cables, turn key on for a few seconds, let the car sit this way for 5 minutes. For extra safety you can disconnect the airbag module connector on the driver's side by the gas pedal (blue box).

Take out the glovebox, there's a two-wire connector on the left rear of the airbag assy. (disconnect) and it's got a strain-relief next to it. Finally, loosen/remove the two nuts (10mm?) on the back of the airbag assy. and the whole unit, cover and all, pulls out together.

The cover is attached to the airbag assy. with several large rivets.
