Hi guys thanks for the like, we have left the air bag area open in the form of a slit, along the whole side from top to bottom where the air bag is placed, it's attached at the bottom with a small piece of Velcro . As stated on our website these aren't tried and tested. I've attached some photos for you to have a look. They are also on the show vehicle in VW Breeze in Poole if you wanted a closer look. Hope this helps.
