This should be obvious... but be absolutely sure that the electrical system is completely disconnected and de-energized when you install the new airbags.

They deploy with tremendous force, so always carry them facing away from you... particularly if you have to disconnect them for any reason.

I've seen one go off due to static discharge after being removed. It was resting face down on a work bench. When it deployed, the whole assembly punched through the sheetrock celing and wedged itself in the roof joists 15 feet up. :shocked:

The procedure for replacement is in the Helms manual, I'm sure of it. It would be a very good idea to be familiar with the whole process before you start. :hsughr:
