Using an original module allows for maintaining compliance with factory safety parameters and reduces the risk of communication issues within the airbag system.

Compatibility and fitment for Seat Altea

The module has been developed specifically for the roof structure and side cabin section of the Seat Altea model, taking into account the shape of the pillars, headliner, and installation routing. This means:

• precise fitment with factory mounting holes,
• maintaining the correct position relative to the pillars and side windows,
• proper cooperation with the original SRS system controller.

As a result, the installation process is straightforward, without the need for interior structure modifications, and the entire system maintains the parameters specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
