i've taken it out before and see how its installed to the face of the airbag. my concern is unwanted detonation well after its been taken out. i kinda like the way i look right know with no deforminties

i'll put in an on and off switch for it. my plan is to put a slim PS2 in the glovebox(fits with only the need to create brackets to hold it in place) so i'll have something to do on breaks or just sittin around in my car.

i figure with more electronics i might want a better battery and even a high output alt. but how would it drain the battery if the power is turned off?
