Could this be dangerous?
 

I want to mount a FairladyZ emblem on the passenger side dash... and I was just wondering if to airbag ever came out would the emblem go flying into my passengers face? :icon28: I wouldn't want to endanger my passenger any more then they already are:p!! Thankz!!

Could be. Sounds like it'd look good though so I guess you need to ask yourself, 1: How often do you have passengers? and 2: How often do you crash? :p

your first crash could be your last.

1.I have a passenger in the car most of the time, my mom!!:)
2. I have lost control on a dirty road before, rear right rim is scratched to hell but no body damage!! Scared the crap out of me!! Don't plan on doing it again!!:) My mom doesn't know about it, lol and she never will!! :p

What did you do to the rim? I had 1 scrape on my rim and it was the first thing my brother asked when he aproached my car :p

Well they had freshly graveled the road so I wasn't lying when I told her it must have been all the loose gravel flying up!!!:p

dude, don't put it there, or at the very least, disable the airbag somehow so your passenger doesn't get a piece of metal stuck halfway into their face. Seriously, that thing could fly at the passenger faster than you can throw it at them

I agree stupid place to put it. Imagine if your girlfriend was sitting there and the bag went off. I have had an airbag go off before and it can hurt like hell.

What he said...the force of that airbag smacking you in the face is going to be painful enough as it is...no sense in adding shrapnel to the mix.

Stupid place for something, you might as well put a loaded gun there.

O.T:I am a girl... I don't have a girlfriend...I like guys!! B.O.T:Ok I won't put it there... any ideas on where I should put it?

May I ask where you spray painted your Z?

BTW, there is zchicks.com, lots of female Z owners there, just being a little off-topic here, :)

LOL.. I spray painted the screws that hold on the splash guards!! I'm very proud of myself!! :)

Hey thankz for the info...but I think I like being here with you guys!!:)

Wait a second...when the airbags go off the panel doesn't come off and fly at your face. It's like...hinged in a way at the top or bottom to fold out of the way of the air bag. I doubt the emblem would fall off when that happens. It would just fold out of the way along with the panel.

I would almost guarentee that emblem will be embedded in someones face. Read the owners manual about the airbag, it specifically states not to obstruct anything in front of the airbag. Not worth the risk.

BTW...my parents have a Dodge Durango and the panel of the wheel splits in the middle for the airbag to come out. Right on the line in the center is a big hard plastic emblem. I don't know if maybe it's only glues to one side or what. But if that airbag went off it seems like that would hit you in the face.

And on every mod you buy for a car it says for off road/show use only. It's just for legal reasons. It's all about the companies watching their backs. They all kinda have to say that now since people try to make a living by filing law suits against other people. It's sick! :icon16: :icon16:

All I am saying is, its not a good idea, not worth the risk involved.
