They screw in from the back, I think you'll need the wheel off to take the black plastic backing off to expose the screw heads.

IIRC, pull the wheel all the way forward and look/feel behind it for 4 slots. Put the key in each slot in turn and turn it slightly whilst pulling gently forward on the airbag to stop the catches re-engaging. After that it's all obvious.

Managed to do this earlier..
Airbag popped off with a stubby flat blade.
Pozi to unscrew the rear trim managed to twist it a little and get in with a short driver and remove the spokes..
20 mins start to finish..easy
