Default Pass air bag removal
If someone has done this - What is the simplest way to pull the pass air bag? everything has been disconnected for a couple of days battery etc - Pull the glove box, or , the dash pad? or both. BTW Will get some pics posted of the car this week
Thanks

You will need to pull both the dash pad and the glove box. The air bag is in an aluminum box that is bolted to the firewall.
