Yeah, i'm going to tackle the steering wheel before i head off to work. Wish me luck.

So to take it off there are 2 plastic covers. One where the windshield wiper thing is, and one on the other side. The steering wheel is held in with torx screw and you'll need a t-30 size bit to take it off. I bought the t-30 screw driver, but it's very hard to take it off. I'm going to buy the bit that will attach to my wrench to see if it's easier.

They are twist lock LEDs, but i cannot find the correct size. Trunk/Gas lid/Traction control are twist locks, but they are smaller than the other ones. I'll keep everyone posted soon.

Edit: Found what it is. It's the neo-3. God i'm an idiot. I tried it out before but thought it was too long.
