Are you talking about a Mustang or something else. Air bags are one of them things that type of vehicle affects the price. Let me know what type of car it is and i can get you close to a good price

Remember you usually need Driver and Passenger bags, a module and sometimes the sensors up front depending on how bad the damage was.

Or check out www.car-part.com for one's in a salvage yard. They are very easy to replace yourself.

they just bolt in its no big deal to replace them but you will have to get the computer reset if theyw have been deployed because it will shut down the car.

Where the bags deployed or just taken out? If car was not in accident you do not need the module
I thought you had to buy a new air bag module not reset it. If you buy bags out of a salvage yard they usually include that in the price. No you do not need a new steering wheel just the center piece. and the Passneger side should also come with the SRS cover. I have not romoved the passenger side but I do belive you need to remove the glove box to get at the screws better. And the steering wheel is just 2 bolts on the back of the steering wheel.

I believe the web site is www.hicksairbagcovers.com I would be very surprised if they are selling you both air bags for $175 it might be the covers only make sure you check that before you buy them. I just checked there site and the will reset your module for you.
