If you consider $5  " big $$$" , this is the extra charge UPS tacked on
for shipping a Mercyless Benz airbag to my friends shop from a Texas
boneyard.

There was a $15 packaging charge,  the box was specially made, but the
box was the same "special box" as required for shipping thinner, paint
etc.

Bull, if you follow the procedures outlined, and are careful, anyone can
work with airbag equipped cars.  I trust myself to do this kind of work
much more than the "monkey lads" at the local dealership.  There is much
more danger involved in sticking your hand into an almost empty gas tank
to change the pump than pulling an airbag by the book.
