Hi There love the content and the Channel and you a good honest guy and l know that the Channel will do very very well Especially on Saabs they have a huge following best of luck.😊
30 year body man from Canada here. That damage is non-structural. Some time spent working it back out from the inside, some primer and paint to cover and seal any bare metal and you should be good to go. I’d also look at the bracket position above and on the side just to make sure they’re in the right place but if it all lines up after, no problem. For the airbag, based on the age and model I’d say look at the crash sensors first. They’re outside and subject to weather and can be easily damaged. After that would be the clockspring, due to movement over time. The “polystyrene thingy” is an “impact absorber”.
Thanks for the reply. Might nab myself a cheap impact sensor and use it as a swap test :) Still need to do some inspection on the system as a whole, hopefully I get a day without rain this week to have a look :D
I know it was hard for me to break it :( At least the parts from it will contribute to keeping others on the road whilst not financially bricking me xD
The 93 convertible has two concealed rollover hoops behind the rear seats that are deployed in certain collision situations, might be worth checking the wiring to these?
@@itscarbeardYes ,that's correct, but they are part of the SRS system ,and if the wiring to them is compromised, they show a airbag light . ( they did on mine anyway).
Haha, it's auto ASMR... I have the mic placed right under my chin without the wind protector as it always falls off >.< Might have to find an alternative.

Check to see if it has something to do with the airbag? I thought they only deploy when the car is tipped over a certain degree?

Dude, you’re the most out of breath person I’ve ever heard!
