How to disconnect airbag wiring?

Hey guys,
I'm just starting out on the steering controls retrofit, and I'm already having trouble. I can't seem to figure out how to disconnect the wiring harness for the airbag, I can see it but there doesn't look to be a good place to grip/pull, and there's several plastic stoppers in the way.

Any thoughts?

Alright, I figured it out. I had to apply side pressure to the yellow harness to get it to pop out, and then after that, the black harness.

Got my steering wheel in the house, replacing the buttons now!

I was going to say carefully... But since you are done be careful handling the airbag and if you have to set it down somewhere be sure to have the part facing the occupants facing up.

If you want to see what can and does happen messing with airbags go to youtube and there are thousands of clips of them blowing up unexpectedly.

Yep, it's back in place where it belongs now. I'll have to do one more disassembly of the wheel though as I was missing some parts for the nav button replacement.
