fascia removal question

**cm2005300** · 02-13-2008, 12:22 AM

i have read the removal procedure and is there any danger of setting the front airbags off while doing this??

not with second generation airbags. I believe the vehicle needs to be moving over 5 mph before deployment.

comes off with just platic rovits and some screws.. Goes on and off in less than an hour, believe it or not.

Just don't use the method I used to get the front facia off.

It does set off the airbags.... and is probably the most painful way to mod the car... (and thankfully, I was not the one at fault)

Facia can be removed in like 15 minutes once you know what you are doing.. removing the dozen or so screws on the bottom belly pan is the most time consuming part...

And don't get pissed and beat up your car..

You will be like me and miss having an LX.. (insurance company wrote it off as a total loss)
