Passenger Airbag
Description
DESCRIPTION
The horizontal surface of the instrument panel top pad (1) above the glove box (2) is the most visible part of the passenger airbag. The passenger airbag
door is integral to the top of the instrument panel top pad above the glove box opening on the instrument panel in front of the front seat passenger seating
position.
Located below the passenger airbag door area of the instrument panel top pad, the molded thermoplastic passenger airbag retainer is secured to the
underside of the top pad. The retainer defines the airbag door breakout area of the top pad and serves as the receptacle for the passenger airbag cushion
and housing. Numerous small window openings on the forward and rearward flanges of the receptacle receive mating hook formations stamped into the
airbag housing, which locate and secure the housing to the top pad.
