as the topic says, does anybody's passenger side airbab cover curl up on the edges, if so, do you know how to fix it without ruining the setup?

for some reason that seems like it only happens on 95-96. That's all I have ever seen it happen to. I guess maybe mine will too once it's 8 years old. I have a passenger side airbag I can sell.

no thanks, I'm good, just annoyed by it curling up, I would try to glue it down, but if I got into an accident and needed it I, rather, my passenger would be screwed.

Well, imo, you could glue it.....if you got into an accident i severely doubt that super glue will hold the airbag on. But you could try heating it up witha hairdryer and puttin a lil glue on that corner.

Mine does it too but i chose to forget about it as it will be coming out in the future.

the cover doesn't flip down. I think the airbags are kinda perforated inside so that the middle rips in an X shape and the airbag pops thru. This is what my gf's civic did when she wrecked. I didn't know airbags did that. Get some 3m adhesive. The airbags come out at like 200 mph. No glue will stop that.

thanks, I think I will try that sometime when I get around to it, I gotta find the source of a really strange sound in the engine bay first, (question already posted in performance forum as "Really strange sound?")
