Both Airbags Popped Out On My11 RRS is it big job?
Yesterday I took a knock from a silly 18 yr old girl who drove straight into me on a junction. My airbags have popped out on both driver and pass side and now the insurance work will be done at a local repair centre.
I'm just looking for some advice on whether a non Landrover specialist will be able to do the job properly as I have visions of monkeys ripping out my entire dashboard to replace it and my car just not being the same again!!!
Also roughly how long will this work take?
Will need new bumper, windscreen, steering wheel airbag replaced, passenger dash airbag replaced.
Any advice here would be much appreciated!

Insist on the work being done at your local LR garage. That's your call, not the insurance company's.2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Yeap......demand that a LR approved repair centre deal with the damage. It's your car and you chose where it is repaired NOT your insurance company.
