LOL Not quite, Jim. No hammers involved. LOOSEN the bolt (this keeps your face in one piece), plant feet firmly on the floor board and pull left then right, top then bottom. Never had one that wouldn't come off, although I have ran across a couple of stubborn ones that I had to really work at.
P.S. I am not a big, strong, muscular guy here...
Yep I do the same thing. Did that for my STi, our CLK, and when I changed the steering wheel on the ranger to a leather one... no issues or need for a puller. Key point is loosening the bolt but NOT removing it all the way so when it finally gives you don't hit your face with the steering wheel...lol
