MoparWoman Jamie Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Work on these yesterday evening. Here is the air bags. Yes that is electrical tape super glued to the original kit piece's. The tape was trip down to 1/2inch tall. They do compress nicely an the tape doesn't stick on the inside either.
