Column squeak on my '08

[sfo1]

I have a 200 and when I get into the vehicle and start it the memory position of the seat and wheel position kicks in. When the wheel is extended out to its memory position it squeaks.

Anyone know how to open this plastic column area up so I can clean and lube the part that moves in and out? I see an airbag below and do not want to mess with the wrong plastic cover(s).

TIA

Closed out.

Remove three clam shell column trim screws. Remove lower clam shell. Clean screw. Apply synth lube. Test. Re-assemble. Silence.
