Kids will be kids. Sorry to hear about that. It is not that bad of a job, IF you have the correct tools. You have to pull the air bag assembly off the wheel, then using a 10mm allen remove the steering wheel. Once that has been removed it is pretty easy. Mostly phillips head screws and re-routing the harness for it. Good luck !!
