fitting airbags to a my97
how much work would it be to convert a my97 to have working airbags?
obviously i would need a complete dash & all parts - which i could source thru members on here etc. next thing is, i would be struggling for time to do this myself, so any ideas what a subi specialist would charge for the work/guestimate for hours needed. thanks |

are you doing a fully my spec conversion (loom ecu etc) this would make it all a plug & play affair

dont know, car may have a full standalone ecu, so dont want to mess with that.
sounds like it might be too much of a hassel. thanks |

Hey, I can imaging this is going to be a major exercise,
Firstly airbags are something I wouldn't advise using secondhand, also some of the components your going to require are airbag modules Dash harness Impact sensors Pretension seat belts Sensors for the seats And a control module so it all works when it's suppose to. In my experience this could be seriously expensive. Hth |

no worries, normally i wouldnt consider it, but a member on here gave me the impression it could be a viable thing to do.
thanks |

Not worth it. Buy the a MY98/99 that comes with airbags.

MY97 will have the old style dash and airbags were not an option. MY98 didn't have them standard but they were an option. 99 onwards they were compulsory I believe. I can check when I get home if you like but fairly certain all the airbag loom is seperate from everything else and just taps into a few wires. Been a while since I had a look.
That said, if you needed to buy all the bits it may not be worth it. |
