What exactly do you have? Driver and passenger side airbags? Control module and sensor? Let me know how much you want for them and I'll see what I could do. Thanks.

My car was in an accident before I got it, and the airbags went off. The passenger's side cover doesn't look right to this day, it is a little higher then everything else which bothers the hell out of me. Good luck man

for the drivers side you need the air bag module and the clock spring but I am not sure about the pass side, I would assume that once the clock spring trigers the drivers side it sets off the pass side as well

the sensor does not have to be replaced. you will have to buy a dash to repace the cover over the passenger side bag. im not sure if the driverside bag comes with the wheel cover.

From what I've heard you'll have to replace the entire understructure of the dash, from door to door to properly replace the passenger side airbag.

I could be wrong, though....

I don't think you HAVE to replace them. If you just want to, then nevermind, but I think the law says that they are only required until they are deployed. Anyone know for sure?

Re: Both airbags deployed. What exact pieces will I need to return to normal?

I've taken apart a dash at my local wrecking yard to get to the passenger side airbag cover... My airbags were deployed before I bought the car and the cover was crooked and screwed up also... The cover is attached to the dash through two places glued in the front, with a large strap, and also to the entire plastic housing of the dash itself... There's an area that's scored around the plastic at the back of the airbag cover so when the bag is deployed, the pressure breaks at the scored area and blows the cover off... The best thing to do is to replace the entire dash housing... I ended up removing only the cover because of the rips in the dash on the car at the wrecking yard... I flipped the dash over and tapped around the scored area with my fist and broke it free.
