    Steering wheel Airbag removal

    Hello!

    Would like to ask a question before I potentially do something really stupid.

    I would like to remove the airbag from the steering wheel of an e39. Thinking about using it for my racing sim, so I'd like to make it as light as possible.

    Now, I know the Airbag won't explode without it being plugged in, but can it happen when I remove it from the metal cage? Safe to remove the screws highlited in the picture and take it out?

    Thanks in advance!

    Regards, Szymon.

    I would absolutely NOT disassemble an airbag that far...

    Go ahead. Like you said, it won't blow if not plugged in.
