Gen5 Do I have side airbags?

I have a 2003 Camry LE and I've read that side airbags are optional. Being that I brought the car used, I was wondering if there is an easy way to tell if I have side airbags installed. Right now I'm thinking that I do not have them but I want to make sure before I buy an aftermarket accessory that does not cooperate with side airbags.

Yea. Try looking around the frame area of your windows inside your car and if you have side airbags there will be oval coverings over the airbag hole that will say "SRS Side Airbag" just like you'll see on any car that has airbags.

Dude, if you had side airbags, you would have noticed the millions of signs all over your car saying you did. Its nothing you have to search for because its plain as day. If you have to search then that means YOU DONT HAVE SIDE AIRBAGS.

I sorta figured that. I just wanted to be sure. Better safe than to spend a grip for accessories that I can't even add because of stupid airbags.
