New mod arrived this morning.

New mod arrived - M-tech HEATED steering wheel

Quick question,

should I disconnect battery during installation or remove airbag fuse will be fine?

Thanks!

I removed the fuse for my installation. Piece of cake.

Pic of my wheel (if only I had a heated wheel ) after installation of gauge rings...

Let me answer this and it is YES. Let me tell you why. Every morning, i really leave early and sometimes when i park outdoor, i wish i have heated steering wheel and for about 10 mins, i put up with it. Do i need? Perhaps not all the time, but you dont have to be in a cold city to benefit from it. It's like we dont need angel eyes, the xenons are just more than enough but its a nice mod, same thing with that IMO.
