First, you remove the airbags. If you search the forum or youtube, you will find instructions on how to remove the air bag. It is very easy and even though the instruction say to disconnect the battery, you don't have to do that.
Next, the steering wheel trim must be pulled out of the wheel. This is a good video showing you how to do it:

This can only be done by hand as tools can damage the piano black trim. It does require a bit of force. Here is the tricky part: Be aware when pulling at the trim and controls. If you pull upwards too far when the trim releases the wiring from the shift paddle can be damaged, in which case you will have to buy new control buttons for your steering wheel. Be very gentle and pull slowly.
