There's no pics with these but maybe they'll help. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...r-removal.html

Sounds like there's tab covers on the sides of the airbag cover to get at the screws to remove the airbag, from an old post by rominl. I don't have my car here to look at but I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out!

There's a few pics on bananags's DIY page in the DIY wood wheel that show the wheel with the airbag removed I think, it looks like there's arrows pointing out the bolts that need to be removed. This could help give you an idea what you're dealing with.

Did you get a wood wheel?

Nice! I want a wood wheel, hoping I can fit it in the budget next year. Figured I didn't come up with much you hadn't already seen, but at least I tried!
