Re: [MBZ] bags
Does optional vs standard make a difference? Rear side bags are an option on the 2010 E 350 About $700 (a guess) is the difference. My W203 2001 C320 had four door bags and curtain bags as standard. TeleAid was also standard. For the W204 rear bags became an option as did TeleAid. I skipped both. The side bags are now in the side of the front seat and fire forward. In some markets the driver gets a knee bag but not here. I would think the W212 arrangement would be the same. Crash tests (barrier and side impact) are on YouTube.

Re: [MBZ] bags
I've also noticed that Benz never rates well in the crash testing, usually because they don't crash one. Severe downgrades for not having active traction control whatever the h that is and no side impact airbags. I don't know where you got this because side bags and curtain bags have been used since 2001.

Re: [MBZ] bags
Side (front) bags were present before 1999 in the 210's; 1999 saw the addition of curtain bags. I think rear seat side bags came in 2000. The funny thing is that the control module has the squib outputs for 4 side bags even in 1999. -- John W Reames jwrea...@comcast.net Home: +14106646986 Mobile: +14437915905 On Jan 1, 2010, at 10:49 PM, relng...@aol.com wrote: I've also noticed that Benz never rates well in the crash testing, usually because they don't crash one.
