HELP! Can't Remove my Non-Sport Steering Wheel

Hey guys so I recently bought a Sport Steering wheel to swap out the boring non-sport steering wheel but I can't get the steering wheel airbag out. I tried every single screw driver but none seem to do the trick out popping it out. Any suggestions would be great or if you know someone in jersey who can do this. Thanks.

I know the feeling. I got one side popped and could not for the life of me get the other side done.

I am contemplating cutting the airbag out with a dremmel

I just took these pics with my old wheel that I still have sitting around, hope it gives you a better visualization of what you need to do. Let me know if you need any more pictures.
