penry Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 mine was quite bad, but just the dash and aribags alone came up to about £1000 iirc, you must ahve got a very good deal!I got quoted 600 quid for the passenger airbag alone! Have prices gone up because production has finished? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshirt2k Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 (edited) get em from a breakers i paid paid £450 for dash airbags and ecu, only to find out the dash and ecu were the wrong type. took them both back and they refunded me £150. Any loop airbags will fit even older ones. The ecu is model specific and the dashes ar different depending on year.Beware cos i also had a battery disconnection device on mine which disconnects the power in a smash. These are about £80 + vat from Vw. You can connect it back together but airbag light will still be on.

There always seems to be loads in yorkshire or scotland but none in wales!!! argh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3boy Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 i paid £750 for a complete front end of a lupo, thats wings, bonnet, bumper, slam panel, dash with both airbags, and air bag control unit, the replace control unit was wring though so i had to get another one. My car has given me a lot of headaches though main one being a crack in the gearbox which i didnt notice when i viewed the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad bought a rav4 which was an easy peasy repair, took the front panel to discover a hole in the oil filter mount which had caused the car to run without oil ad ruin the bottom end shells. All sent to try us style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
