I have had the inevitable failure of one / both of the airbags on one side (I’m not at home so this is the garage description via my wife).

Quote is £1100 for OEM or £600 for equivalent spec non OEM (both fitted prices).

Is this reasonable or can anybody recommend a suitable set to buy through eBay etc?

Thanks,

Dan

It is a 2006 R500.

I think I may give the non-OEM route a crack and see what transpires.

My E500 has Arnotts all round as a replacement but not sure how long we will keep the R500 for so not with the outlay I don’t think.

These come with a 2 year warranty which is probably going to be good for us.
