This question is for everyone who installed the cruise control. How did you guys remove those screws that is removed by using the #27 torx? Those screws are so tight it is impossible to loosen them.

On DIY it's not even mentioned how to take the steering wheel apart other than use #27 torx to remove the airbag. I guess no one else had this problem. Parts of my palms are all red b/c of forcing it too much. Am I doing something wrong?

On my 09 the airbag screws came off easily with a 1/4" drive socket torx bit. I initially tried the torx bit with a screwdriver, but couldn't break them loose. The extra leverage of the 1/4" ratchet was more than enough.

Can you put a picture of the part you are talking about? When I googled it, I couldn't figure out how I can use it together with the #27 torx I got from Sears.
