Bare with me guys...

Can our airbags deploy even if the entire steering/airbag is disconnected and out of your car? I mean can an impact to the uninstalled steering wheel set off the airbag? Or even better a change in pressurization? Static Electricity?

no, the airbag willnot go off unless one of its sensors is crushed/damged. The sensors also need to have Electricity flowing to them for the airbag to deploy. I guess if you tried hard enough u could get it to pop without it being connected but ud have a heck of a time doing it.
