I tried to search but could not find anything on this topic. Did anyone try to remove the passenger airbag cover to fix the rattle noise coming out from there? Something is loose in there on mine and the rattle is unbearable. Any help would be greatly appreciate it. Thanks guys...
Here is the instruction:
First of all, disconnect the battery.
Under the dash on the passenger seat side, there is a black foam sheet that cover the bottom of the dash. Remove the two plastic screw and take the foam cover off. After you took off the foam cover, take a look at the inside, you will find a black plastic air vent tube (it is the middle section of the right side air vent system), took that section out. After you took the plactic tube out, take a look deep inside, you should able to see the bottom of the airbag unit, you should also see 3 screws, remove it all (2 extremely long and 1 short, they can be remove by a 10mm socket). Once you have removed all 3 screw, you can now remove the passanger side airbag cover off the dash and then discconect the cable connector.
Note: After you took out the unit, the passanger side airbag cover panel is still held together with the airbag unit, in order to seperate the cover panel with the airbag unit, you have to remove a couple of more screws. GL!
