One of my steering wheel lights on my bird went out. Just wondering on how I would go about replacing it! Oh and while I'm on this forum, you know how to replace the lights by the door handles? Mine keep going out randomly. Thanks guys.

You have to remove the airbag to remove the steering wheel controls. The controls just pop in but the wiring stops you from removing them from the front. The door handle flood lights are replaced by removing the door handle bezel. Its fairly simple but you will have to work with the lock a little.

Hmm I see, are they any write-ups on how to do this?

Disable the SIR system by disconnecting the negative battery terminal. remove the 4 screws from the back of the steering wheel, should be a t30 torx. Disconnect the wiring to the air bag. Disconnect the wiring to the steering wheel controls. With a small screwdriver carefully pry the control out of the steering wheel.
