Cornishdrummer's Progress Thread - airbag help needed(pg 30)

Post by benmkiv »

At the back there's two holes with done sprung c clips holdin the airbag in, they're an absolute pain to spring out bit be persistant you just need to get a small screwdriver In there and lever them off. Whatever you do if you get one off do not Petrie airbag fall back in and clip on you'll go insane. You access then from two holes in the rear of the wheel.

Mines on self tappers in the original holes from the PDI. Or you could use a good double sided tape.

Self tappers are probably your best bet as Matt said

Mine is mounted to the lower grille but I used custom made plastic brackets to support mine

What other plans have you got for it then mate? will you be lowering it this year?
