If reinstalling the airbag cover onto the same passenger airbag, perform the following adjustment. Otherwise, go to  1.

• Using a 90° needle nose pliers or equivalent, place the pliers on the rear edge of the airbag cover metal flap retainer.
• Bend roughly 10° so that the metal flap is closed slightly to eliminate rattles of the airbag cover.
• Bend until the measurement of the metal flap to airbag housing is 7 - 8.3 mm (use a drill bit ranging from 9/32 - 21/64 inch).

1. Snap cover onto the passenger airbag frame.
2. Install the passenger airbag. See Restraints/AIR BAG, Passenger - Installation .
   WARNING: Do not connect the battery negative cable. See Restraints - Diagnosis and Testing . Serious or fatal injury may result if the system test is not performed first.
