Sensitive Airbags deployed, what now?

HELP... I need a set of TAN airbags for My 96 SVX.. They both deployed when I hit a deep pothole in a dark parking lot. (Didn't even knock my hat off.. LOL)
I hate to turn this in to My insurance as there is no damage to the vehicle except for the airbags. I have two parts cars, but both have grey interiors.

Thank's for any help.

Re: Sensitive Airbags deployed, what now?

I am happy to report that they are still available from Subaru however they are $TEXAS$ kind of expensive. It might be best to turn it in to insurance and have them fight the state for the repair money. I would also make sure you get a picture of the pothole for your records. I have to admit, in my many years of part sales this is certainly the first I have ever heard of a pothole setting off airbags. It's definitely unusual, must have been one heck of a pothole! I bet that would have scared the crap out of me!!!

These are discounted prices, not list. If you need an official quote for insurance I would be happy to send one to you.


Driver - 98211PA003DO - $790.00
Passenger - 98211PA030DO - $1195.00

Re: Sensitive Airbags deployed, what now?

OK Guys.. I have purchased a set of Airbags from a very helpful fellow owner.

So far I have received mixed advice about resetting or replacing the Control Module and sensors.

The Module is the same for 94-97 SVX's But I don't have a spare one.

HELP save My black beauty.. there is NO body damage all I need to do is replace the Bags and or sensors and controls.

Does anyone here KNOW the proper way to replace them?

Unfortunately, the dropbox manual only covers the driver's side airbag information for the 1992

There is a supplemental manual for the updated SRS that came out in 1994, including the passenger side airbag, but not available as part of this group.
