I was replacing the AC blower motor controller and also took out the 6 disc changer. When I looked up, I saw the passenger airbag. I noticed 2 holes that looked like they originally had screws but were missing. Did the 1995 LS 400 have an airbag recall and are there in fact screws missing from mine? Screwed?
There were no airbag recalls for this car. Was your car ever in an accident or was the dash ever removed? Those look like brackets from the dashboard assembly itself.
Two bolts should absolutely go there and they're quite important to ensure the airbag works properly, if it goes off. The module needs to be secured, otherwise it could shift and act improperly

The bolts you are missing are 91626-60818
Thanks. Old service records show lexus replaced blower motor and something else (I can't remember). But anyone might have been up there after without documentation. No accidents reported and i see no damage up front. Original radiator too.
Thanks again for conformation and the parts. Very much appreciated.
Makes sense. Likely then, someone removed the airbag module bolts thinking it would give them access to the blower motor or another part for some reason, and forgot to put them back
Very good that you caught this, as it's a safety hazard as-is!
