Pop of the horn cover in the middle. Unclip the horn electrical wires.  Whack on a socket and extention bar and release the nut.

Simple as.

The steering column is a splined shaft.  The steering wheel has a splined hole - for want of a better word - it just slips on and off.

make sure to mark the splines so that when you reassemble  the wheel is on straight.
