    Freelander 1 Retrofitting passenger side airbag

    Hi, for my 03 TD4 is it easy to retrofit an airbag for the passenger? The handle looks nice but not very useful in case of a crash. I can get the airbag itself for around 20 and I presume the cabling is there... Do I need computer or the most important bit does the ECU need to know? Thanks
