^^ It's all spelled out very clearly in those manuals..
It's pretty intuitive anyway. Just dive in and chances are you'll figure it out. Only specialty tools you'll need are a tamper proof T50 torx bit, and a steering wheel puller (free rental from Autozone etc)

i didnt even need a steeringwheel puller. i just used a socket from my ratchet set. worked great.
from what i remember:
disconnect battery. pop off the covers on each side of the wheel. use T50 bit to take out the tamper-proof nuts (one on each side). slide airbag back out, disconnect harness. **you will lose your horn** unscrew 4 screws somewhere (i forget where but related to airbag)and then you should be able to get to the center nut holding the wheel in. leave the signal canceller in there as you would probably want that.

Its a torx security bit. thats why there's a hole in the middle of the bolt I believe. get one from nissan.

Pics of tools aren't really needed. We've already spelled out which tools to get. Go to Sears, Autozone etc and ask for them by name.
The Cliffnotes of how to do this task is posted above. If you need more, I recommend you purchase a Haynes manual from Autozone, a used one from Amazon.com/ebay, or download the Factory Service Manual (FSM) for free and read the section that applies. All in all, it's pretty straight forward. Just get the tools, and dive into it. Chances are, you'll figure it out on your own.
