If I recall correctly (it's been a while since I took it apart), the passenger airbag is screwed/bolted in from the bottom. I believe you need to get at it from under the dash to get it out. Not really sure about the airbag light.... I'd guess it probably would come on.

If you're gonna pull your driver's airbag, too, you might as well pull the module and all.

To remove the passanger airbag you'll first have to remove the glovebox to have some working room. Then 6 nuts and your golden, 4 up top and 2 on the bottom. Make sure to plug the red safety connector into the harness on the airbag and remove the neg battery terminal a minute or so before starting. Better to be safe than sorry, airbags can kill.

will this cause the airbags to deploy?? cuz im not wanting to take out my drivers yet, not until i get the new steering wheel

its bolted from the bottom you have to remove the glove box and then un plug the sensor min wasnt on after i did all of this

definatly take it the neg termanal off longer than a min....it takes 10 min for the capacitors run out. i would do it for 30 min. and your light will be on.

It the drivers side won't blow The safety plug is there to make sure static electricity doesn't accidentally set off the bag after you remove it.

Just making sure i got the steps correctly:

1) unplug neg termal
2) take out glove box
3) unscrew the 4 bolts holding it up
3) unplug sensor
4) wait 30minutes for safety


im only comfirming this so much cuz im not tryin to get an airbag deploy in my face

i was gonna tell u the same i just installed new air bags on my car and to reach the passenger one u have to take off the glove compartment and there is going to be 4 screws on the top and 2 on the bottom... for the first 3 screw on the top u need a long extension and there is one on the left side that is a pain on the ***..... i had to deal with that one with a bendable wrech....

why are you removing your airbags? i hope this is a 'track car' & not a daily driver.. but somehow i'm thinking its a daily driver because if it was being built for the track.. you wouldn't need help removing your airbag. why in the world would you remove your airbag, are you insane? not only will you get hurt very badly(if not killed) in an accident, but you are aware that if you get into a wreck & get hurt very badly, your insurance will NOT cover you & not only that, but depending on whose health insurance you fall under, you might not even receive health care coverage! please think about this before you do it & weigh the pros and cons, having a knockoff momo steering wheel & a little crooked tray to put your sunglasses most definitly do not mean more to me than life itself.

if you have your damn seatbelt on you shouldnt hit the steering wheel... i have been in an accident in a car without airbags and had no injurys besides my shoulder hurt from the seatbelt.. seatbelts save lives.. airbags can snap necks

Remove the neg terminal and then wait. Before you start removing the nuts on the airbag unplug it and install the safety plug. Otherwise your golden on the process.

Just don't bang the ****** with a hammer or anything.

Sorry my bad, in the EK chassis there is no red safety plug, the connector is automatically shorted when unplugged and those 3 nuts are the only ones. Just unplug, remove 3 nuts you noted and airbag will slide its way out. We were all talking about the EG chassis with the 6 mounting points and the safety plug.

lol ok.. well expect a DIY in about 30min
