canopy modules. When installing a safety canopy module in place of a side air curtain module on a vehicle built up to 03/2002, C-pillar trim
panels that are safety canopy module compatible must be used.

Make sure the safety belt webbing is not twisted prior to installation.
Align the LH C-pillar trim panel hook to the opening in the sheet metal.
