I want to swap the steering wheel on my 88 daytona, got a really nice leather wrapped wheel. Do I need to do anything special when disconnecting and reconnecting the airbag? I assume you need to have the power disconnected. Otherwise anything i should know?

Try to work from the side of the wheel and stay out from in front of it while disconnecting it. They really don't blow off for no reason, but better to be safe than sorry. When you set it down, do not put the face down. If it blows with the face down, it will launch it into the air or through what ever is above it. :(
I've worked on so many AB systems, I've lost count. :nod:

I've disconnected and reconnected the airbag a couple times, no special procedure, I didnt even disconnect the battery
