Passenger Airbag: Installation
- Position the passenger airbag in the glove box opening and maneuver it enough to clear all obstacles and push it up into the opening in the instrument panel. See Figure. Once it is far enough up in the instrument panel it should rest on the crosscar beam.

- Connect the passenger airbag electrical connector. See Figure located on the inboard side of the passenger airbag, attached to the instrument panel steel reinforcement.
- Install the two lower screws attaching the passenger airbag to the crosscar beam. See Figure. Torque screws to 10 +/- 2 N.m (90 +/- 15 in. lbs.).
- Install the glove box assembly (Refer to BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/GLOVE BOX - INSTALLATION)
