Re: Air bags
I dont know as I am no tecchy but be aware it may trigger the air bag not working light on dash.The only reason I say that is in an old probe the air bag light came on when that connector became loose.

Re: Lazy window motor
NB this is a specfic rubber lubricant and not wd40 silicone lubricant.
Do not use at my recommendation.I tried at my own risk and do not know for sure it either works or whether it cause damage.
