Should be two Torx bolts on the back of the wheel....
....remove those and the center airbag should come free (you'll need to remove one electrical connect also). After that, I don't know....I do know that there is a big "nut" visible then, not sure if it's a standard metric size or some other sort of nut. Hopefully someone else will know.

one more question...
Thanks for the reply! one last question, do I need to remove any interior trim pieces when I undo those two bolts? I mean is there going to be enough room for the rachet and the trox bit to swing around with nothing inthe way? thanks again.

Why would you possibly want to remove such a valuable safety devise. If you ever seen one in action
you wouldn't do it. Be aware, you may be risking something with your insurance company as they are insuring your car based upon it having that, and if you get in an accident and get hurt, and it's not there, they may not want to pay out as you've modified the car. Also, this may deter potential buyers of the car when you are done with it and do decide to sell it.
