passenger side air bag lid is open on my 94 camry

[Rickrpose]

I was removing parts from my car to paint and accidentally bent the air bag's interior lid/panel of the passengers side. I have a 94 camry. I want to know how I can remove the lid.


Also when I put everything back on, none of the door buttons work.( window and locks) keep in mind I had the "ground cable" disconnected for 4-6 hours. I want to know how can I fix this issue aswell.

The lid is held on the dash by 2 bolts, but those bolts are hidden behind the upper part of the lid. You could remove the dash, or if you can manage, just the glove box, but your gonna have to play elast-o-man. Once you remove the 2 bolts you can try to bend back the metal plate, or just replace it. Installation in reverse.

Obviously if the lid is open, you should see the 2 bolts...

For the door lock issue.... check the wires in the rubber boot running into the door.

i will see if I can bend the lid as far is I can to get to those bolts that you mensioned.

for the doors, I didnt remove the panels. But I will check the wires anyways.
