Yeah, why is he removing the airbag curtains? Do you mean the panel covers? You have to pop out that little square that says "air bag" and then just yank the rest(carefully) of it right off. There are 3 or 4 plastic clips that will release by pulling on the whole piece at once.

Yep, only the seats need to be removed to unbolt the top strut assembly.

Agree with all above.

When removing the back seat and rear deck it is recommended to remove the C-Pillar trim. To get that peice off you have to pop the square clip that says "Airbag" or "SRS" or some such thing. This is just a notice that an airbag is in that area. The removal of the clip and the C-Pillar do not actually effect the airbag at all.

Find the DIY/Service Manual scans on this and take 'em to your mechanic.

you should just remove the backseat and should see the top of the rear shocktowers right there. there's very litttle work space , but there shouldn't be any problem wth airbags. i did mine a a few months ago by myself, went real smooth. just remove the backseat and the rest is common sense from there lol find a good DYI, but removing airbags is unnecessary
