So the drivers airbag went off and there wasn't a passenger in the car so the passenger side did not go off. What do I need to replace? The passenger side seatbelt still functions normally as no one was in that seat, do I need to replace it? The drivers side seatbelt is locked so I know I need to replace the SRS unit, the drivers side airbag and seatbelt, do I also need to replace those two sensors on the front of the frame rail?

You need a drivers bag, SRS unit, and drivers seatbelt tensioner.

03's don't have separate impact sensors.

I'm working on an 07 as stated in the topic title, it has separate impact sensors.

Then you'll need both impact sensors

Gotcha, thanks. Glad they are not as expensive as the srs ecu

Don't need to replace impact sensors if they are not damaged. You can reflash the ecu for 50-100$ at most places to save you from having to buy a new one. Seat belt needs to be changed only if it has been locked. Replace the blown airbag and you are good to go!

SRS units can not be reflashed. Once a bag has deployed the unit is a paperweight.
Impact sensors are also 1 use only items.

YES they CAN be reflashed. They work perfectly fine after the fact. Having had at least a dozen of them reflashed for multiple cars ranging from hondas to lexus, I know they can be reflashed. Impact sensors for honda can be reused if they are not damaged.

So help the guy out and suggest a place that can do the reflash for him.
