My wheel should be here sometime this week and I was about to head to Home Depot to purchase the T30 Torx tamper bit when I noticed my wheel didn't have a T30 Torx bolt holding the airbag in place. Mine is held on with a standard 10mm bolt on both sides. I tried my socket and the bolt loosened with ease. Maybe I have these instead as I have a early '09?? And yes, it's the original OEM wheel that has never been removed and the Z has never been wrecked or had the airbag deployed. Anyone else find this?

Default New Wheel

New wheel came in and this thread helped with the install. Thank you OP!

I had the wheel custom made and shipped from Europe for a steal of a price with stitching and top ring to match OEM Touring interior and while I had the airbag off, I added a little carbon fiber wrap around the switches:
