Step 1: Ensure both the steering wheel and wheels are completely straight and disconnect the battery
CAUTION: Disconnect the battery negative lead using a 10mm socket before proceeding with the installation!
Step 2: Insert the airbag removal tool directly into the concealed opening located in the backside of the steering wheel until you feel the spring resistance.
Repeat this process on the opposite side and the lower side of the steering wheel.
Disconnect and detach the airbag, horn and information connection plugs, then remove the airbag carefully.
Afterward, proceed to unbolt the steering wheel center bolt using a 17mm socket to take off the factory steering wheel. It’s crucial to maintain the clock spring ring in its original position without spinning to prevent any damage from occurring due to excessive turning.
(If you damage the clockspring during this step, you will lose all steering wheel functions after installation. Then you need to replace the entire clockspring)
CAUTION: Risk of injury. Handle the airbag unit carefully, ensuring that the battery is always disconnected and the airbag is always facing upwards when it is being set down!

Step 10: Insert the two yellow airbag harnesses through the back side of the adapter hub and insert the quick-release harness through the front side of the hub
Plug the harness from the quick-release harness
If you have the version shown below, make sure to connect the two black ground wires.
Mount the adapter hub onto the steering column and attach the quick-release onto the adapter hub. Next, use the provided Madtrace locking wrench to secure the adapter hub in place with two M5x14mm bolts to hold it firmly. Then tighten the steering wheel center bolts with a torque wrench set to 30 ft/lb(41 NM) to securely fasten the adapter hub.
CAUTION: Apply a torque of 30 ft/lb(41NM) to the steering center bolt!
Step 11: Ensure that both the adapter hub and quick release base are aligned straight with the steering column. Proceed to secure the quick release base using six provided M5x14mm bolts. Tighten the bolts firmly to establish a secure and stable connection.
Step 12: Put the steering column covers back in place
Step 13: Position and align the steering wheel onto the control hub. Proceed to insert and tighten six provided M5x35mm bolts to secure it in place.
CAUTION: Before reconnecting the battery negative lead, make sure to double-check that all components have been properly tightened up. Ensuring secure connections is essential for safe operation.
CAUTION: When the vehicle restarts after power loss from the disconnected battery, you may notice some fault codes. However, after driving the vehicle normally for a few minutes and fully restarting the vehicle , the fault codes will clear automatically.
