Step 3
- Remove the Phillips Head Screws that hold the base of the steering wheel.Before you remove the wheel please be cautious to remember where the gears attach each other. So it would be very nice if you mark the spot where they are in touch. When you assemble the wheel attach the gears in the same place as they were from factory.

Step 4
- So here is the crack and we are ready to take the wheel apart. The crack is the reason for your loose or play feeling of your wheel. The red circles indicate the spots, where you should open holes with your solder iron! Through these holes the zip ties are going to pass around and make the plastic strong again!
