| with Airbags goin for atleast $1-200 a piece it is easy money. just as easy to get as a deck, but way better resale. Plus you dont have to deal with holding a product, fronting it yourself, or getting ripped off/ potentially ratted out by a pawnshop owner. You just go and grab what a mechanic asks for and they will usually pay decent prices |

air bags go off because of two descriminating sensors and a safing sensor. i highly doubt an airbag would go off during the dismantling process. of course static electricity is known to set them off but the connectors that are accessible usually have high resistant shorting bars (i'm not sure if that's the correct term for them) that ground the static shock so it doesn't set off the bag. unless of course they damaged this bar on the connector when removing it. then by all means pull up a chair and watch while hilarity ensues :thumbup: |
