No big deal. I responded on 4/5 @ 10:01 with the following:
LOL no worries on the Bentley crap, we're just messing with ya.
The airbag module is on the transmission hump, under the console. Should be a pretty straightforward swap (do get a second opinion though... you might call Rudy at Speedriven).
As for safety, unplug the battery and wait ten minutes for the capacitors to discharge and you should be golden
I appreciate the PM response. Not sure why I didn't see it! But let's not go down that Bentley road again. I just think there are a few lines that the Crossfire shares with the Bentley. It is just my opinion and I am entitled to that. It is not fair to be attacked for that.
Right now I just want to get the airbag problem fixed. It may take me a couple weeks because I have other things going on right now. A friend also offered to check it out for me (and he knows what he is doing) so I will see what he says before I start pulling the console off. I just don't want the dealership touching my car. I don't trust them, they will probably give me a price of 2K to fix it (they want 100 dollars just to read the code) and every time they touch my car they break something. I will let you know what I find out....
