Default LS Zetec airbag locations

I want to mount a satnav in the top right corner of the windscreen where it doesn't interfere with road view and power it from the interior light wiring.

Have a feeling there is an airbag up in there somewhere - can anyone confirm that before I make a big boo boo.

Thanks in advance

Steve

driver's air bag should be located in the steering wheel

AFAIK, the driver's airbag deploys from the steering wheel. The passenger's deploys from the dash above the glove box and the sides are deployed from the seats.

Side airbags in the seats make it difficult to acquire seat covers cause you have to get them with no stiching in the side where the airbage depolys. They are available however but the range is smaller.

I put mine between the rear view mirror and the top of the windscreen.
It just fits although I have to make sure the suction cup isn't over whatever that is across the top of the windscreen.
