Ok stupid question: Anyone think the A-pillar SPP pod mod would hit them in the head in an accident?

Will a side collision release the airbag or only front/rear collision?

There is nothing backwards to what I said but I guess it depends on the type of accident..
where the steering wheel airbag deploys vs. the a-pillar curtain airbag. Both in my opinion are head bags.

It prolly wont . . .
I put mine on last night and when you look at the assembly of the airbag mechanism, it will deploy at the bottom edge of the pillar and not cause the entire pillar to release. This is also due to the Torx screw located under the airbag clip on the pillar. It's not going anywhere. I suggest you fin "_rl" and ask him for pics from his crash (shows the curtain airbag deployed).
