Default Shopping for a 97-01 3rd Gen ES...

Helping someone shop for a 97-01 third gen ES. Hoping to get one with side impact airbags.

Did they only come with them starting in 98, or did it start in 97?
Was it an option or standard on all?

Thanks,
C

Hey Eggman, probably good idea to check here => http://www.automotive.com/2001/12/le...nt/index.html.

That's the US one as the ones in Australia would no doubt be different.

Side airbags started on the 98. You can find some pretty good specs on the ESs here: http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/de...=ES%20300#used Hope it helps bro and good luck with your search.
