Did you buy the steering wheel airbag on Ebay for $359?

 

oh yea the one a few days ago?

yea i just paid 329 plus 10 shipping. 339 something.


anyone know the mercedes partnumber for the passanger dash airbag? i'm trying to find a slk one since i can't find too many crossfire ones. thanks

 

oh updated pics

i gotta sell the car soon i'm running out of cash cuz there were too many lil things that cost too much (200 just for a fenderliner!! lol)

it's gonna be 9000 as is now with the drivers airbag and i'll try getting the new airbag module.
actually just trying to get my money out. lol

fun as hell to drive tho, its currently my dialy driver

 

How are you going to repair the dash?

 

i was gonna replace it, it's 400 at the dealer. i'm trying to find a top pad used.

i'm trying to find a passanger airbag, triyng to find the mercedes part number

 

racermp, Your car looks great! That grille looks especially sharp. Good luck with the rest of the project and have fun driving it.

 

Looks great! Was that damage to the dash caused by the passinger air bag deployment?

 

hey thanks all. yea it drives great, but today, i was sitting at a light, waiting for it turn green, someone in a subarban bumped me from the back just scratched the bumper in the center. so waiting for the claim to go thru so i can get it repainted... again. i have bad luck


yea the dashboard damage is cuz of the airbag. i'm looking for a new top dash pad.


anyone wanna buy a crossfire with 39k miles for cheap? lol

 

be sure to tell them the airbags deployed

 

yea i'll disclose all i've done upon sale

 

most states total a car that has had an airbag deployment

 

Well Looks like the car has a new owner.... Its me


I wish I had seen this post before I took the car as a partial trade.... The guy who I got it from said that it was just hit on the passenger side front... guess we have a different opinion of where the side and front begin, lol.

NE way This is my first post on this forum and I hope the car will hold up. 41,xxx miles now and at least I enjoy it.

Mike, it may just be wording. The pics show the car was hit on the front, passenger side. From the after pics it looks like he did a very good job of restoring the car. Good luck with it and hope you enjoy it as much as the rest of do ours.

Well i didn't buy it from racermp... I got it from the guy who got it from him. It does seem like he did a good job though (I searched all his posts and he seemed to know what he was doing).

 

hey galdenzi, call me if u have questions. 832-228-3584

 

Air Bag deployment has nothing to do with a car being totaled. Most states dictate a vehicle as being totaled once its required estimate of repairs reaches 75% of the cars market value. Air Bags are very expensive, so they do push a car over the edge of being totaled quite often, but deployment doesn't automatically mean it's totaled.

 

the state has no right to total a car, an appriaser (insurance company) will re title the vehicle totaled if the damage is 75% or higher of the vehicle book value, and only if they buy it back from the owner.

this vehicle did not go thru insurance, it was abandoned at a storage facility for a year.

i replaced the drivers airbag with a new one before i sold it. needs a dash pad and passanger airbag( 600 for both, 400 for dash new and 200 for airbag used) and 60 or so for the module.

 

Umm.. It's cool that you're bringing a crossfire back from the brink of death, and saving it from having to go off to the crusher, but with the prices of crossfire's now, wouldn't have made more sense to buy a used one, with less miles, maybe newer, and not in an accident for a few thousand more?? I mean prices for Srt-6's are unbelievable, and if I didn't live in wisconsin with winter coming up- I would be driving one right now, instead of my Evo

 

do you know where the srs module is located?

 

Passenger side footwell under the carpet and foam. Remove 3 plastic nuts and flip the metal panel backwards and you'll see it in all its' glory along with the amplifier and TCM.
