im pretty sure he side air bags were an option so the only way to check is either check the contact with the dealer... or look aroudn the car for the air bag sign..

It won't be in the VIN but it will be on the RPO sticker assuming you knew the code. But it'll be easier to look at the pillar and see the "air bag" label.

i believe this is the first "norma;" post ive seen twisted2.2 make...has he learned his lesson..lol:

Like i said above, look on the pillar, if it says airbags then you have it and if it dosent say anything then you dont have side airbags. Dont be gay and go outside and look!

If you give me your VIN, I can decode it and give you all of the RPO codes for your vehicle and tell you if it has them or not.

did you pay for them? they don't come standard, so if you have them you paid extra for them.

"take a sledge hammer and hit the front of ur car really hard"

How would this help determine SIDE IMPACT AIRBAGS???

^^i was going to write to slide into it sideway at the correct angle but i didnt feel like getting my protractor and geometry skills out when i was joking around anyway. if youd like to test your to see if it has them then let me know and ill gladly find the correct angle just for you

PM me your VIN and I can tell you. I manage a collision center in Texas. Most of 2.2 base models do not though.
