Help a newb with a Merc Vito
« on: September 12, 2008, 11:54:35 AM »
Hi All,

I have been lurking for a little bit on here and now I was wondering if you very knowledgable folk might be able to give me some advice on where to start with my project...

I have a 2003 Merc Vito SWB and I would like to install an airbag system.. I know it can be done (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hI-AY5igB3g).. just gotta have it!

I have had a look around under the van and the rear seams pretty straight forward to do.. but I was wondering where I would find the front struts / bags (would they need to be custom made?).

I would like to perform this conversion on my own, so I can learn how it all works and be able to fix faults if I have any (unless you guys think I would be far better off just taking it to Ryvern etc)... I have been playing with cars for the last 10 years and done pretty much all my own mechanical work.. although I can't weld.

How much do you guys think I would be looking at for a complete FBSS setup?

Any advice gratefully recieved.

Thanks,

Adam.
