Remove the airbag and the front multifunction button cover to get to the bolts.

I think that if u look at the diy on how to take your steering wheel off you might get a better understanding but the paddles are part of the backing of the steering wheel so if u buy a new one (backing) then your good hell ill even take the paddles off your hands
