The link is in the second paragraph of the OP.

It sits nicely over the Acura badge. It kinda is raised around the edges, but not where you could even tell unless you were looking within 2 inches of it. Of course nothing is like the real deal, but this sticker's pretty nice.

think it's possible to make the dual work as a single in a 98-99 accord? im looking into it and how the dual works is by firing both charges simultaniously in severe accidents for quick deployment, and firing one charge, then the 2nd a split second later to fill the bag longer for more cushion. im thinking just wiring up one charge will at least make the bag deploy, would be better than nothing, just gotta get the airbag wiring diagrams

I would NOT mess with airbag wiring. There's a good chance that once you plug it in after doing the wiring it could go off or something. You can get an airbag from an AP1 S2000 if you need a single stage. Check into an EP3, I don't recall if they're single or two stage.

Yeah probably. But I don't know how easy that would be either.. I still wouldn't do it personally, but its a better idea than messing with the wiring.
