technically, it sorta does just pop-off, it's a 10-step process.

Removing
CAUTION!
Before disconnecting the battery, determine the correct coding for the anti - theft radio.
- Disconnect battery Ground strap.
- Remove instrument cluster
- Release steering column adjustment.
- Turn steering wheel - 1 - , until steering wheel spoke is vertical. Extend steering wheel fully and move to uppermost position.
- Secure steering column adjustment.
- Insert screwdriver (approx. 175 mm or 7 in. long) from reverse side of steering wheel into hole in hub (insert into hub approx. 45 mm or 1-3/4 in.).
- Twist screwdriver in direction of arrow to press back clip -2- and release locking lug -3- of airbag unit.
- Turn steering wheel back 1/2-turn (180°) and release second locking lug on opposite side.
Note:
Apply light pressure to airbag unit over previously-released locking tab to prevent second tab from binding during disassembly.
- Turn steering wheel -1- to center position (road wheels straight-ahead).
- Disconnect harness connector from airbag unit.

If you found these instections useful, support who made them, buy a bently.
