There's no need to be scared of the airbag if you take all the right precautions.
However, you actually don't need to remove the steering wheel to change the indicator stalk. You simply remove the shrouds, and the stalk clicks sideways into the housin |

The high beam flicker is well known, and luckily it's an easy fix.
It's a very common prob with VR/VS wands. Replace the blinker wand, and Bob's your uncle. You don't even need to reef the steering wheel off to do it.
The other prob is the blinker |
