Good, because I would deploy the airbags if they were in my vehicle. Only in the steering wheel though, I think the side ones are good. >If the car is sold, truthfulness would dictate that >the potential buyer be told that there were no air bags in the car, but >technically this isn't a requirement as far as I know. Oh I would definitely tell the buyer, it is one of those things that could come back to haunt you. I could envision a certain type of person who reads in the manual that the car has airbags, then turning around and suing the seller when they find out (especially if they find out through a crash) there are none. ~J~ Remove "Junk" to reply
