Default OK what happened here? (Airbag)

Ok i had a 98 GS400 and it came with an 01-05 steering wheel and airbag. I switched it back to the original steering wheel it had.

SO I took it off and had it sitting around a while.
Then I disassembled it a few days ago because a member wanted to buy it, to come across this....




Isn't that a single stage bomb? I looked at the thread there is on it, and saw that when it looks like that, its for the single stage.




thats what the front looks like.


looks llike someone swapped it to single stage?
or did any of the earlier 01-05 GS
EX: 2001 or 2002
come with single stage OR is it from another car other than a GS?

If that was on a 98-00 GS then it was probably a single stage off an 01-03 RX.

hmm im wondering if it was swapped, because in the "swapping bomb" thread,
the bomb from the 01 - 03 RX looked a bit different, as in it had a different label. but i can also attest that I don't know how a bomb on every 01-03 RX looks either.


the label on this has the bomb label from a 98-00 GS...

I dont know, im confused
