idk it worked on my yaris, but its a 08 so it doesn't have side bags.

I'm pretty sure that' wouldn't happen but anyone who can chime in a shine some light on this area..

Side airbags are in your seats if you have side airbags. Curtain airbags are in the panel that goes up the side of the windscreen. I think you may have the two confused.

oh! i wasn't aware they were in the seats!

Now what you said makes perfect sense.

Although just guessing they are only designed to go off from big impacts, im sure you can safely unbolt them and take them out, but if something did go off..yow can you say concussion ?

No worries, that is the reason as to why you cant put seat covers on a side airbag car.
