    How to Remove Steering Wheel Lock?

    NASA requires that the steering wheel lock be removed on Spec E30 car. Can anybody tell me how this is done or point to a DIY?

    I've searched far and wide and was surprised to be unable to come up with something, although I found versions for the E36 and E46.

    Thanks.

    You'll need some pretty big rockets to send an e30 to Spec(space), it's not very aerodynamic.

    From the bently manual

    "Removal of the steering lock mechanism from the steering
    column is more involved. With the trim and the steering column
    switches removed as described above, remove the collar, the
    snap ring, the washer, the spring, and the plastic sleeve, in that
    order, from the end of the steering column. Then, use two
    screwdrivers to pry up the upper steering column bearing. See
    Fig. 7-1 1 . With the electrical harness connectors disconnected,
    chisel off the head of the shear bolt. Then remove the steering
    lock mechanism from the steering column."

    Step one, find pin.
