(ET) Removing the steering wheel

[Christopher Zach <cz alembic crystel com>]

Well, I got tired of the terrible steering skip on my E20, so I pulled 
the plate. Compared to my new steering shaft, the old one is shall we 
say... rounded.

So it needs to come out. I tried the use vice grips and turn the wheel, 
but said steering wheel is frozen solid to the shaft. Any tips on either 
getting it free or pointing me to a new steering wheel?
