Undo the nut but leave it on so that you don't smack yourself in the face.........

Been there, done that just the once!

Its 2 star shape screws to release the airbag. You will need a T30 bit I think. Pull airbag forward and disconnect wiring. Then a 14 mm socket for the steering wheel. As said, leave the nut on a couple of threads so when you yank the wheel it doesn't come off in your face

Exactly this. Disconnect the battery.

There's a plastic cover on each side of the airbag, prise them off the a small flatheaded screwdriver, this will then reveal a star shaped screw each side (T30 as Mills said) unscrew, then disconnect the airbag (yellow) connector it has a collar....pull the collar back and pull the connector apart to disconnect.

Then unclip the black wire, the airbag can now be removed.

Then use a 14mm socket to undo the big screw in middle of the steering wheel, leave it on a few turns, then yank away at the steering wheel until it comes off.

As long as it's not a DC2 one he'll be fine.
