You are using a steering wheel puller, correct?

A Steering Wheel Puller is a must. I have had a couple of them that were difficult to get off. On those, I used my Dewalt Impact Drill with socket adaptor. Even the toughest ones popped right off then.

so i just changed out my 95 with a billet.. just making sure im reading right. since i no longer have the airbag all i have to do is remove the bulb and im good? or do i have to install a 2 ohm 10 watt resistor across the leads?

Simple to do, just put one end of the resistor/resistor assembly in one end of the connector, and the remaining end in the other end of the connector. You do not need a pic or schematic.
