guys please look at this possible scamming buyer
ok so heres the sorry i bought an s2000 steering wheel and airbag from a member on here last year. recieved it everything was fine. i never installed it on my car and earlier this year sold it to a memeber on this site bc i needed money. so after agreeing to a price below its value i sent it out to the guy. dont here anything for 2 months from him regarding it. then he suddenly sends me a pm saying that he needs me to refund him bc the steering wheel and airbag were for his friends car, and when he took it to a garage to get installed they shop could not get the srs light to turn off and told him it was bc the airbag had been deployed before. i explained to him that if the airbag were deployed the cover would have been ripped. then i dont here anything again for another month, then today i get this sent to me through pm
payyourtoll (9:10 AM 5/17/2006): hey, some new news. I dont need you to reply to this right now, as I know your position is that it the s2000 airbag never deployed before. But it does appear like the bag was deployed or damaged, and the cover was attempted tpo have been repaired. It also appears that there is NO airbag even behind the cover! We are going to get to the bottom of this, probably have Honda check it out. If this holds true then we will certainly need to return this to you. If it is a good bag you have my apologies.
my response
bleedblue94 (9:13 AM 5/17/2006): it s IMPOSSIBLE honda does not sell the cover without a airbag the aribag will deploy if you pry the cover, if the airbag deploys the cover is broken bc the bag shoots out right through the cover.....i dont know who youre talking to but they are feeding you with misinformation
this is just really irratating bc i dont understand and want to make sure you guys all know....ive NEVER dick anyone over with something ive sold and now it just seems like this is BS......

Re: guys please look at this possible scamming buyer (bleedblue94)
payyourtoll (10:46 AM 5/17/2006): That is exactly what I am trying to figure out. He sold the bag and now that buyer is filing for refund, we have no choice but to go this route. I see your points, just have to get to the bottom of it. The bag definitely feels very soft, I have owned a few s2000s and bought a few additional oem wheels, and never felt one like this. This is the only reason I am approaching you until we find out for sure.
bleedblue94 (10:50 AM 5/17/2006): so now he sold the airbag to someone else??
payyourtoll (10:54 AM 5/17/2006): he was trying to but could not due to the issue.
bleedblue94 (11:15 AM 5/17/2006): you guys can have it check out all you want.....i know that there is no way that was deployed...anyone who knows anything about aribags knows they blow a hole right in the middle of the wheel....a non repairable whole that could not be mistaken for anything else

Re: guys please look at this possible scamming buyer (bleedblue94)
Ok, let me first say. I worked at Honda for 18months in parts. Im now the parts Mang at a very large bodyshop in the DC area.
If the airbag went off you would know. End of story.
I think the guy should take the car to Honda and have it put in. When you airbag goes off you need to replace the clock spring 99% of the time. When the bag fires, it melts the wires the hook up to the bag. When you get the bag back off look at the wires and replace the clockspring. Hook it all back up and clear the codes. If the light stays on hook up the scan tool and read the code. If you have the car at a shitty shop they will not have the right tools to do this. TAKE IT TO HONDA and stop being a cheap ***. Thank you and have a nice day.
PS, you need to tell him SORRY because you guys were in the wrong

Re: guys please look at this possible scamming buyer (Jeremy D. Swain)
ok thanks all for the replies. I was the buyer questioning the product. Since it is evident now that the bag never deployed, I will not have any trouble selling it. I will post it fs on h-t shortly, and it will be cheap.

Well, the way you guys make it sound the air bag is no good. If its not then its not worth ****.
So if its no good then all I would be buying is the wheel

Ya, thats cool. But you are acting like a girl. Some of us stand up for you and as soon as you get what you want you back down. If the airbag is fucked up now I will pay $50 or so for the wheel.
I havent seen one post from you where you told ANYONE thank you for there help. Let me make sure I help you out next time

It's worth a PasswordJDM CF block off plate at most.
The cover would definitely show if the airbag has been deployed. Theres no way to fix it, especially a drivers one.

OK EVERYONE!
The wheel is up for sale, was finally able to snap pictures. This is the precise condition it was received in. As the whole board says, the bag could not have been deployed, so this is a Super deal for someone
