Air Bag Sensor

Hey all, I'm starting to sketch up some models to fabricate a front bumper but before I go jacking around with to much stuff I wondered if anyone could tell me where the sensors are for the Air Bag? Be my luck I'd smack the sucker dead on and Phoooosh - D E P L O Y E D!!

Impact Sensors

WARNING: The restraints control module (RCM) orientation is critical for correct system operation. If a vehicle equipped with an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) has been involved in a collision in which the center tunnel area has been damaged, inspect the mounting and bracket for deformation. If damaged, the RCM must be replaced whether or not the air bags have deployed. In addition, make sure the area of the RCM mounting is restored to its original condition.

For this vehicle the SRS employs two impact sensors which are integral to the RCM and are not separately serviceable. The RCM is mounted on the center tunnel under the instrument panel. Mounting orientation is critical for correct operation of all impact sensors.
