Guest harasn Guests Posted 13/12/02 09:22 AM Share Posted 13/12/02 09:22 AM I hope you don't have side air bags as you can't fit seat covers with side air bags as the bags come out from the back rest of the seat.

They are destructive in deployment, meaning they rip specially designed seams in the seat stiching upon activation.You may have noticed seats with them fitted are a bit harder in that region than standard seats due to the housing.

OUCH! :lol: (depends what airbags of course) Yep they can and do. They deploy between the seat and the door in a side impact collision (and rollover too I believe)heres a quote from the VT owners hand book (I assume they are similar in the Falcon, perhaps someone with a BA fitted with side air bags can check/verify this) Quote the air bags are stored in the side of the seat backs closest to the door....after deployement, the relevant seat,seat belt, sensor and control module require replacement Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/330-ba-xr-seat-covers/#findComment-3081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
