I understand that head curtain side airbags will not be available until mid model year. That being said I realy want them but would rather get the H3 sooner.
Could these be instaled by the dealer once they become avaialable? Not sure this would be possible but thought someone might know.
Thanks for your help.

No, That would require some major work to get done, I am not even sure if the computer set up is the same, not to mention the sensors required to activate them

I'm so bummed. No air bags, no blue paint, dealers are sure to charge a premium. At this rate my wife is going to start begging me to get that Tahoe that she's been wanting.

Thanks H3 Builder....at least 5 people on this and another site have said they will not get the H3 without them.....if you have a chance to pass that on, perhaps it may help prioritize their efforts. Thansk again as always for your involvement here.

There are still issues with the side curtain bags and as of right now they are saying end of May. Sorry for the delay in getting back with you as I wanted to get the right story.

Nothing for sure yet. Lots of rumors of different things. Will probably won't be out for about 2 years. H2 Alpha will probably be next year.

Thanks H3 Builder. By the way, your opinion....is that option worth waiting for? Since the H3 does not have side impact bags, some here are saying that the side curtain airbags may not add much additional protection?

I'm not sure. I haven't had a vehicle that has had them. If I wanted the H3 bad enough, I'd buy it anyway. I want one but will probably will wait for another year or 2, after I pay my truck off. I would think they would be nice if you were just going to be on the street, with the extra protection and all. But what I was wondering is, has anyone had problems with any air bags, steering wheel, passenger, going off while offroading? If so, I don't think I would want them going off while offroading. Would probably be a mess plus expensive to replace.
