Ok well I have disabled my airbag system on my car. Mainly by installing a aftermarket steering wheel. Now my question is IF I were to sell it, what would be the proper amount to ask for it. A forum member inquired about purchasing just the sensor, but I really have no clue how much to ask for it. I know the systems are ridiculous if you have to buy it from a Stealership. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

You ought to be able to get a few hundred just for the bag. I know they cost as much as $1K, and the cheapest I've seen them brand new is $500.

ok the problem with buying a used air bag is if it does not go off or it is damaged in any way or you put it in wrong and it does not work right your screwed. this came from my body guy that has his own shop .That is way the big black market for these fell through and no body wantes them, they buy them new.

That sensor, I think at a junkyard you'd be hardpressed to get JUST that sensor, its the control module and normally they will sell the bags with that (since normally if you need that box then you blew your bags and need it) anyways....

I've gotten a good drivers bag + leather wheel from a se-r for $100 before, and a passenger bag for about $150, I'd say a fair price for the sensor would be anywhere from 60-100, thats me though...
