The passenger side airbag cover is curling up on the ends. My dash color is tan, what adhesive should I use to tack down?

    3M weatherstrip adhesive works well. It will noot affect deployment. That airbag is powerfull. When they deploy they split open the cover and break the windshield. And if your windows and suunroof are closed, they bend the sunroof rails. A little glue in the corners is not going to stop it.

    According to Volvo, nothing! You are advised to buy a new cover an have it installed.
    There is a lengthy write up on Volvospeed: http://volvospeed.com/vs_forum/index.php?showtopic=26638

    "I" suggest using any old glue in thin amounts. But if the air bag does not deploy, pleas do not sue me, I am not worth enough to make any difference!

      Can't imagige a little adhesive would prevet the airbag from deploying. Look at the 940 cover that were used... They blew the windshield upart?
