Question about the passenger airbag cover
« on: 28 February 2013, 13:25 »
Hey guys since I got my car there has been a lovely dent in the passenger airbag cover I'm guessing its been punched at some point in its life.

My question is if I buy a replacement how do you remove the cover?

That won't set the airbag off?

I'd pull the negative off the battery just in case, I get paranoid that I'm gonna get a face full of airbag!
