This airbag was just on ebay. The seller says it was resealed. You can't even tell that it was blown! Does anybody know how to do this?
Thanks

Default Don't know if I'd trust a "used" airbag.

Unless there's some certificate or proof of a qualified "resealer"....I wouldn't touch it. I probably still wouldn't touch it....it's been blown.

I don't even trust new bags, to heck with a used one.

Never heard of such a thing. Airbags are one time use items.

It doesn't have an airbag in it. It is just the cover that has been sealed.

Why would you want that? Why not just put a MOMO in place of the bag wheel?

The emblem is attached to the steering wheel, not stuck on the airbag.
