Driver side airbag delete

[05stroker]

Im thinking of doing a steering wheel delete to save weight

I could do a driver delete and drive via remote control and save 205lb! Hmmmm...


Now what fun would that be?

There used to be someone on ebay that was selling only the covers. Not sure if they are still there. I made one out of 1/8" aluminum plate, welded the tabs on the back for the screws. I tried making one out of sheet metal but it would flex to much for the horn to work properly. PA state inspection requires a functioning horn.....I can get away without airbags but the horn is deal breaker..lol. Its not the pretties thing but it works.

Easiest way is just a new steering wheel and adapter... Lol

I removed mine as well, really want one of these but I can't bring myself to pay 155 bucks just to have my steering wheel look cool.

I may cave in eventually and buy one though. I'd like to keep my interior looking somewhat stock

The driver's side bag is actually pretty light, probably only 2lbs or so, not near as heavy as the passenger bag

Cool, I can't see it being any different for just the plastic/cover. When you get it, if it doesn't work for you shoot me a PM

Yes, it is. LOL

Download, print, and spin the paper around.

Don't waste your money! Just the plastic cover no mounting hardware! I will have to fab something up to make it work. Wish I would have just gutted the OE bag.

Thanks! I will be using this tomorrow!

After seeing the cover by its self, you can see what the tabs are for. The two on the sides will be what holds the unit in place. You will need to put somthing in there to make it some what solid again I recomend stirafoam. I used spray foam and it was a little messy.

Well shit, how does it attach in the cobrajet then, I thought it used the same steering wheel.
