I need to remove the steering column cowl on my Z4. The ista instructions suggest that the steering wheel needs to be removed and the airbag needs to be removed to remove the steering wheel.
Has anyone done this?, is this the case?

No need to remove the steering wheel to remove the cowling. If you need to remove the airbag from the steering wheel, these are good instructions.

Removing it is pretty easy, getting it back on is the hard part!
