Well yours looks to have a different wheel than we have here in the US. On the US model the screws are on the back (near the cluster) - you may need to remove the column trim cover to get at them, which may require moving the wheel to access the cover screws. Hopefully someone has experience pulling the wheel off of your domestic market model. Should not be too much hassle, just be sure to pull the air bag fuse(s) before going at it.

You need to remove the airbag. The screws are behind the steering wheel. Once you have the airbag off, you need a steering wheel removal kit. Your horn not working probably has to do with a broken clockspring.

And like someone else said, remove the airbag fuse before working. And when handling the airbag, always leave the front of the airbag (that has the steering wheel trim on it) facing up.

the problem is that i can't find any kind of bolts or screws on the steering wheel itself , there's only screws for the trim behind it
