Surely they broke the clips as they had NFI off course!

My mechanic charged me a slab but it was the first one he had done
No brainer but make usre you disconect the battery

It isn't too difficult just take your time. To get the airbag clips undone, I found a wide stubby screwdriver worked well.

took my dealer about 50 mins (inc getting the replacement bits from spare parts)
so normally about 35-40mins I reckon. The longest part is re-setting the airbag trigger
thingy so the body module recognises it (afiter it got disconencted when the wheel came off)

Smitty I haven't heard of this before, done ours with batt still connected & all fuses in too & no problems.
