Wet Okole + Side Air Bag = Problem?
 
1 Attachment(s)
What's up everyone. I'm one of those "Stick to OEM" style type Civic Owner. However, I'm pretty bored of the "blah" interior. I'm thinking of getting some Black and Gray Wet Okole. I drive a sedan with Side Airbags....will that cause a problem during install? Anyone know? Let me know.

The picture below shows the side airbag so I think it's very safe to assume there should be no problems.

Thanks! Later...

Thats the same question I had.... I also have side airbags and am wondering the same thing ????

i have seen others with it, umm, i would research into how the airbag is contructed into your seat, and maby ask honda, they should know... but it can be done

I have wet okole seatcovers too, but I don't have Side airbags, so I don't know if this is an issue or not. Just ask wet okole directly then ask Honda just to make sure. Good luck and good choice you will love them I'm sure...

i think you're supossed to disconect the battery or something and thats it...

Disconnect the battery and let it sit for five minutes. There is a two minute safety standard that the airbag has to have enough juice to explode after the juice gets cutoff. From the pictures, the side airbag is visible and should not affect the SRS system. Five minutes is the safe and it is better than paying the dealership or a shop to check the system out and reset the SRS light.

I just called Wet Okole and there are holes for the Side Airbags....should be no problem to install.

don't worry, there are holes one the side of front seat cover!

just TELL them you have SIDE AIR BAG before you buy!

I got them! no problem! and very very nice!!! I would say wet okole cover is the 3rd good choice after real leather sport seat and leather seat cover
