Hey guys, i have a 1987 Supra Turbo no airbags. is it possible to add the required sensors and wiring from a post 89 supra in order to have at least a passenger airbag implemented?
Thanks
Thanks

90+ only came with driver's side airbags. As far as I know a passenger side airbag was not available on the MKIII. I have a 92 and no passenger airbag.
ahh alright thats my ignorance i could have found that out. what about same situation for driver? not worth it i assume because of sensors needed in body etc?
No MK3 came with passenger air bags as far as I know. I've never seen anyone add a driver's side air bag either. It would probably not be worth it, but may be possible. Maybe you can be the first one to do so, but it would probably be a lot of work.
Yeah well I'm 21 living with parents, biggest reason was to get parents off my back with the "you don't have an airbag shpeel" but in all honesty I've moved on from the "reckless teen" days of driving. It may still be a cool project but it'll have to be shelved for now, other projects take the priority, thanks though
30 year old explosive device inches from my face with equally as old sensors and wiring... nah that couldn't possibly go wrong

I read this somewhere and it kind of made sense, the OEM seatbelt let's your body and in turn head move down and forward, so in the event you flip (which I've been in before) the oem seatbelt allows your head and neck to stay clear from a crush in roof, doesn't a harness (without a roll cage present) stop your body in the event of a flip from avoiding a caved roof? Therefore breaking your neck and or injuring your head?IJ.;2023686 said:30 year old explosive device inches from my face with equally as old sensors and wiring... nah that couldn't possibly go wrong

But yes my next interior investment I am planning on a good seat.
They're first gen airbags anyway. Ask anyone that's been hit by them if they think they helped (hint: they HURT far worse than if they weren't there as they're meant to be primary restraints instead of secondary).
