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?

I believe can not... Only "right" electric pulse can deploy it for sure... airbag it self is just piece of cloth wink.gif
