Damaged my airbag cover — anyone know where to find a replacement

[HeathD]

Hey everyone — long story short, I accidentally damaged the airbag vinyl cover on my 2020 Supra and now I’m paranoid about driving with it. Dealer quoted me over $454 for just the airbag assy, and used ones seem hard to find cheaper than new oem.

Does anyone know a good source — junkyard, eBay seller, or forum member with one?

I’m also open to buying a complete wheel with airbag if the price is right. Just trying to stay safe and get back on the road.

Appreciate any help ?

(P.S. I did post in the Parts Wanted section already — just casting a wider net.)

Its an air bag with an explosive charge in it - buy new from the dealer and tell yourself that it was a lesson to not damage air bag covers.

You just need the airbag cover or both the airbag cover and airbag? Because I have an aftermarket cover you can buy from me if youre just concerned about the aesthetics. It is black leather with red stitching and black toyota emblem. Feel free to message me.

So you saying he could keep it and just do some “touch up”?

no im just saying its damage to the appearance. not damage to the airbag itself. so wont cause any harm/airbag randomly blowing up. when did i say touchup? lol

I agree. If it’s only cosmetic, just scratched, I would think it could be touched up. That’s something I’d do and my wife would want the whole damn thing replaced ?

Here’s what the damage looks like, not just scratches.

Wait how did you damage it that badly? ? either way it LOOKS like surface damage to the cover only

No reason to explain. But I’d like to think your girlfriend was trying to fit in there with ya (make it work) with something sharp in her back pocket ?

You ever see the salvage thread/page? Tons of Supras on there without airbags deployed, you’d think they just part them cheap ?

Would that require replacement? I don’t know enough about it. To me it looks compromised. Unless it doesn’t affect the integrity of keeping it from deploying.

@NitroYellowMKV could help you out in sourcing a new airbag cover. They sell custom steering wheels and airbag covers as well.

I just replaced the whole steering wheel with an aftermarket one that came with a cover and had my mechanic take the airbag out of old and put it in the new cover! I’m good to go now! Thanks for all the help and input!
