you do have to take the steering wheel off sometimes mate, i told people to drop the coloumn down to get to the 2 torx screws as the bottom of the surround, and got people saying it didnt work and they had to take the wheel off, anyway my wheel is a snap off one so comes off in seconds
also when your taking them out it sometimes scrapes on the coloumn and scratches the front
did your car have 2 screws on the bottom as they may have been taken out
