disconnect the battery and let sit for 30 minutes. then unplug it (big yellow wire) under the console. remove the glove box. pull the dash back and remove the 4 nuts from that bracket holding the air bag in there. pull it out as one piece. i think this is right, its been awhile.

You're taking your airbags out in a high 12 second car? Why?

Mod seems very ricey if you're not building a full-out race car. If you wanna go faster for cheap, buy a nitrous kit.

I'm working on making the car faster day by day. And I am building a full on race car, just bit by bit. The car will be a garage queen very soon, and then the full on modding will begin. Every little bit helps, btw, so why criticize what someone else wants to do with THEIR car? Some people don't have $500 to buy a nitrous kit right this second. Deleting the passenger air bag is FREE. I hardly ever have passengers ride with me anyway.

That and I have had some bad experiences with air bags myself.

I took mine out of my '96.Unhook the battery, then I took the top pad off, the glovebox out, unplugged the yellow wire, and loosened the dash on top, so I could pull the dash back. just be careful how far you pull it, or it will break the frame. you have to take out the 4 screws on top that holds it in, but I found it easier to take the 4 nuts off the bottom of the bag, and pull it out as 2 pieces.
