Hello everyone, I have the car listed above with the M sport steering wheel. I bought a steering wheel stitching kit to upgrade the steering wheel and when I was removing the wheel, I turned it so I could get better access to the holes in the back to remove the airbag. After removing the airbag and all the connectors I pulled the steering wheel and the clock spring came apart, I purchased a used clock spring but now I’m unsure how to install it since I don’t remember exactly where the steering wheel was at when I removed it.
