Bought a replacement airbag on Ebay... went to put it in and everything was fine until I tried connecting the wires. The green one will fit, the black one will not. The back of the airbag unit looks a bit different.

I did not receive the wire that connects between the airbag itself and the connector in the wheel (presumably beside the connector for steering wheel controls, etc). Could it be that I just need this wire? Or do I completely have the wrong airbag? Everything except for the back plate make it appear identical to mine.

Car is disassembled now and can't drive it... help!?
If you did not originally have the Sport airbag - you will also need the Sport Airbag wiring harness & the bracket...

Your existing Sport Trim will work just fine, but now is a perfect time to replace with something else if you're so inclined - since you'll have the wheel off anyway
