Disconnect you battery and install the Airbag deletes. They are 75$ and are paint to match. I've seen people set off their Air bags and break their noses. One soldier of my actually put a screwdriver through his cheek and into the upper back side pallet of his mouth touching his brain stem. Luckily there wasn't any perminate damage.

Yes, it can be fixed but depending on how strong the clamping force is down on the mend it may be forced back open. IDR if it's an active force that inflates it or if it's passive. If you do try and mend it don't use plastic use brass with a couple clamps.

if he actually stabbed the airbag itself, then no, there is no way to fix it and the assembly will have to be replaced.

it was a red tube, although i've never seen a deployed airbag before, i'm lead to believe they are a big white bag.. if red tubes are mustangs new airbad system, then yes he stabbed it.
