Air bags deployed.
Ok I bought an 03 evo at auction that's pretty clean. But the air bags deployed. As far as I know now I have to replace the clock spring, driver airbag, and dash board. Is there anything else I need to replace? I seen a post on here saying the seatbelts, steering column, air bag module and some other stuff needs done. But to me those sound way to out there. Need a little input from someone who has done this. Thanks.

Instead of asking a series of very technical questions, just Google Supplement Restraint system group 52B PDF (its downloadable)

there are two front crash sensors on the radiator support one on each side if you pop the hood open look at it you will see one yellow cable on each side when it comes to air bag ecu try to get evo 8 air bag ecu why you have to replace it once it records crash can't be used its like a black box you can send it out to get it reset but i would just buy a good used ecu with air bags not deployed after you get everything installed scan for codes and erase it and your all set have fun
