there is a little gap under the gun, if you twist it round it should just slip out.
the wheels i just pulled 1 of the wheels off and slid out.
dont know about the rest tho, sorry.

the actual steering wheel should just pull out of the dash.

Hi, I dont wish to sound patronising here,just be carefull with the tabs..they can be a tad fragile with age, they might show signs of stress by turning a bit "white" no matter how gentle you are..
It's been a while, but I seem recall the dash being glued in place? Some one else may know better tho'
