    airbags

    Do all RS6 have rear airbags in the bolsters. I was replacing my front airbag and noticed that I do not have the airbag label on my rear bolsters like I do on my A6 sedan. Also I noticed that my coding is not set for rear airbags. Did some RS6 not come with them? Is there wiring there for me to add them?

    Owners manual is your friend.
    '02 S6 Avant Silver - Pokey | Carbon Black/Ebony RS6 w/ stuff - darn quick | '03 Daytona Grey/Ebony RS6 w/ more stuff - quicker yet | '91 NSX CDN issue with 6spd & BBSC - quicker yet and then some | '87 Buick GNX OEM clone w/ lots of stuff - quickest hands down

    Rear side airbags were a $350 option in the U.S. market, not standard.

    I find it interesting that it is not a standard feature on a rs model. My 2000 a6 has them. I looked into the possibility of adding them but it would require either buying the harness that has the wires for it or running extra wires from the side airbags to, I would assume the airbag module which requires a lot of disassemble just to get to
