Bedazzled steering wheels are like hunting with Dick Cheney, there’s always a chance you are going to get a face full of bird shot.
Surely airbags are constructed in a way that doesn’t include slamming the hard plastic into your face?
I’ll retract that question mark. Designing it that way would just be too dumb.
Most are designed for the cover to move to the side when deployed but some are designed to split in some way that could cause the rhinestones to come free.
An airbag is just a carefuly sized explosion instead of a kevlar pillow case, in a crash the airbag is deployed in a fraction of a second, lots of engineering goes into making them safe. However, the rind sones aren’t an intended part of the system and can be separated from the wheel and “knocked” out of the way at high speeds, much like ball barberings in a claymore.
Told a couple once “Just so you know, in an accident the clipboard you’ve got glued to your dashboard will hit you right in the face as the airbag explodes madam, so it might be a good idea to remove it.”
She looked at me with huge eyes then turned to her husband who was looking straight ahead with an annoyed look on his face, they took off and the clipboard was still there on their next visit…
Do you know what the hell it was used for?? Did they like…pin old school Map Quest instructions to it?
