You best bet before anything is to disconect the battery to be on the safe size.
your current wheel I think uses an allen key to unscrew the airbag module first. Not sure what size allen key thogh, sorry.

What, sayjin?? I would much rather NOT have an 18yr old (my case, 17yr old your case and 20 yr old, berti's case) airbag going off in my face. NO WAY JOSE. You are supposed to replace them every 8 yrs. Did YOU? PS first generation bags hurt more than helped in MANY cases.
I thank upstairs that nothing has happened to me but I am NO more safe without my airbag...

I dont know, I feel like the engineers put them there for a reason, and as such, not having one makes me feel a bit uneasy.

Dont feel bad, 99% of us do not replace our airbags..not saying it IS dangerous to have one, they DO save lives, it's just that it's not like ours are brand new, flawless 2nd gens that WILL operate as intended...

I dont think I would have the patients to put thath thing on everytime I drive. My buddy had one in a civic, I felt we where going on a plane flight everytime we drove in his car.

I think it would be a PITA to mount one of those things in a 124... If I'm not mistaken, you have to mount the shoulder straps within certain number of inches of your shoulder height... think about it, if you crash and your body flies forward, if the shoulder straps are attached to the floor behind the seat, your back will arch backwards and could very easily break your back.
That's why most 5-poiint harnesses are attached to roll bars that have cross members that run at shoulder height behind the seat.... Unless I'm completely missing something here.
They might make seats that are structurally sound enough to mount the shoulder straps directly to the seat. But I wouldn't do it!
and IMO, I would rather have my face hit an airbag than my steering wheel... even if the airbag is oldy moldy and a bit firm by today's standards.
