mine did :rasp:

They sit in the boss. The airbag wires are connected to the airbag ring. This spins with the boss, so nothing crosses over.
Like this
Resistors go in the x2 airbag connectors (ignore the fused resistor in hand lol)
Horn connector is pushed down into the boss there. I'd simply get some spade connectors, connect to your horn, then connect to the horn connector (cut off and keep in safe place if need be)

But.. He cant get the connectors for the airbag through the boss kit tho, thats what hes on about,

Ye but hes askin for this boss kit tho, so he has to work with what hes got so the best thing would is to not feed the airbag connectors through
Momo, never had a problem with the ones i've had. Just make sure its 2002 onwards for a 182.
lol i knowwww, thats the plan now mate, im loving this thread tho im getting help with the wires aswell so its all goodjust send it back and get a momo one. seriously. would make things SO much easier....
Fook that! Wouldnt mess with the airbag ring with cutting back wires etc!!! Expensive if it f**ks up, ask SBV 116
you know how you say the resistors go in, do the resistors go from one end of the airbag clip to the other air bag clip or dus each resister go from one bit of the same wire to the other?not sure that makes sence lol?
1 resistor for the orange bit only and a seperate for the green/yello part only? or do they go from one to the other?
i need a picture or a diagram lolone resistor per airbag connection i.e one for grey one for orange... fold them in half and make a circuit for each connector
lol thanks matelol it simple mate. i'l draw you somethin on paint....two mins.....

Paint rules tbh!
Does this help?
right this is like a "early learing - my first use of paint", but im tired and on a laptop without a mouse....
the two airbag connectors come out of the steering column, you need to get two resistors from maplin, bend them into a u shape and poke them down the holes in the end of the airbag wires. simple as that.
ive not got round to doing the horn yet so dont ask me for a pic of that
gona do the ph1 stalk though eventually with a horn push on the end. dont like the idea of frying the wiring by just connecting it to the horn push that came with the steering wheel.....
if you do get stuck with the resistors / boss, fire me a pm or something
if your gona do an aftermarket horn, at least get one of these......

rofl thats class.
love the attempt at trying to spell the sound aswell!! haha.
