    Default Any harm in removing shock sensors/roll over sensors?




    The ugly ass orange things on the fenders, I want to remove them. I am going to start shaving/cleaning the engine bay and would like to know if there is any weirdness that will occur by just removing them. I don't have an airbag any longer so I am not concerned with that.

    Thanks in advance

    Jon

    The SRS uses an independant module for it's functions. I can't think of any problem with removing them other than an SRS indicator, but you would already have that with the bag removed.

    I removed mine on the 535; no problems once committed to no airbag. I also addressed the orange airbag controller box at the firewall.
