Just bought a new Sienna LE. The dealer says the front passenger seat
airbags come out of the seat about chest-high. The bag, I'm told, emerges
from what looks like a perfect seam in the upholstery on the side of the
seat. About 16" below this is the SRS Airbag notice. I don't believe the
dealer. Nobody would design an airbag that has to blast through an
upholstery seam. Can somebody give me the real info here? I want to modify a
seat cover for these seats but need to know where the air bag really comes
from! (I suspect it is from the hinge area, where the SRS notice is.)

Thanks.
