Hello!
I am noticing some irritating noises from the passenger airbag cover, so I have decided to dampen it with some foam. Is this easy to open, and is it safe? If so, how?

yep its sealed... and you have to remove the entire dash to get to it... pulling out the glove box will not do it.... you have to remove the airbag before you can get to the tabs holding the cover shut. its no easy job. If/when the airbag goes off... the whole piece needs to be replaced including the tabs... oh and your windshield. check out my profile if you don't believe me... passenger side glass damage is from airbag...

Yeah, i know what you mean. People thought someone threw a brick at my passenger side windshield when it went off. Wish someone was in the seat to stop it from blasting out my windshield LOL!  j/k
