This morning I sprayed it with PB again and gave it about an 1/8 of a turn, sprayed it again.

After lunch I tried it. Just about a 1/4 turn and it popped. Just about scared the $hit out of me when it did.

Biggest pain for me were the two screws on the back of the airbag!!

"383 ZO6" was spot on. Spray it and be patient.

Should have the new one on later and I'll post a few pics.
