| Are D4 and D3 Airbags the same?? |
|
Morning
Was looking at replacing my Curtain Airbags in a D4 (59) Plate. Does anyone know if if ones from a d3 are the same and will fit in a D4?
Are there any parts that can be used from a D3 in a D4 as am also looking to change other parts like seat belts, OS/F wheel arch, carpet, seats, etc
Any Suggestions will be much appreciated.
Cheers

Morning Feis
While i am an advocate and provider of equipment capable of pretty much all aspects of vehicle modification, i also believe that when it comes to core safety systems like the Airbag and Braking systems that you should always stick with the origional proven standards.
I am not sure what you are trying to do or your reasons for doing so, but you should never ever put any cost saving above safety IMHO.

No worries Feis.
Glad to get your pm comment of my post nudging you in the right direction in this.
I know many modify their Brakes with different pads and combinations of Pads, Calipers and disks and even i would like to try out some Brembo type upgrades on my RRS, with a view to making the braking better, but at least with this you can get some indication of the affect of any modifications you make before you might encounter a situation that depends on their performance.
With Airbags, you have no idea of whether what you fitted will work or not until you really need them to work.
Russell, i have looked at the item your kindly provided Ebay link shows.
I am sure you know that i am not second guessing you and only the item's description
This items description actually leaves me in some dilemna and with some question and doubt.
You see pretty much before 2010 LR parts used LR type part numbers that were three alpha charactors followed by 6 numeric digits, EG LRO500010, afterwards Ford type part number were introduced that are typically four alpha numeric digits, followed by a Hyphen then 6 alphanumeric digits followed by another hyphen and then 2 or three digits. In the part listed there is a Ford Part number quoted of 5H22-14B342-EC
I don't have much understanding about LR part numbers, but i do with the Ford ones.
And what troubles me the most with this part number is the initial digit 5 because this represents the year in which this part was first designed or re designed and a 5 means 2005.
All i am saying is that it just a bit of a contradiction for me in having a 2005 Ford Part number for a post 10 Model Land Rover part that would make me want to independantly check the Part number on other post 2010 vehicles first to make sure they match.
