No prying, just pushing in... in a stabbing motion. Here's a cropping from the BMW repair instructions:

If you don't get this part , its going to be more frustrating unplugging the connectors. Use a flatness screw driver and push inside the hole. Keep pushing and turning the screw driver till you feel tension. Airbag will pop out. Repeat on other side

Didn't see what wheel you have (it doen't matter for airbag release)but if you go to the above link there are pictures of the angle you need to use to hit the spring in the right place. When you find it you will feel it push back. Just push the spring in until that side of the airbag pops up. As posted when you have the air bag loose pull it out slowly so you can release the clips. They have locks that you pull up
