I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I dunno about that. The insurance company has your VIN, and based on that # alone they can determine whether your car was a model with airbags.

ya insurance companies are tricky like that. it sucks. insurance should be free. well good luck man. but it sounds like ur just gonna have to change insurance companies. and this may sound dumb but why do u need to take out the air bags? (my teggy didn't come with them or ABS, but the insurance thinks i have ABS so i get discount haha)

yeah i guess i shouldnt tell them.....the reason i took out the passenger airbag is because i am doing a JDM conversion.....jdm civic dont come with passenger bags. I plan on getting the CTR stearing wheel now so i guess i dont have to worry about the whole airbag bs now. Thanks for all your input.

I dunno, my civic has no airbags, stock steering wheel was replaced with a momo one. They never asked, I never said anything. I bought the car that way. How would they know you weren't in the same boat? If they don't specifically ask you it's not like they can expect you to know you had to tell them. It'd be a different story if you put in something aftermarket that you paid for and wanted insured extra.
