*I walked away with an airbag burn on my left arm and also burn mark on my left shoulder from the seat belt.*

I had forgotten to mention this until reading your post. I received very heavy bruising to my groin area and tops of my legs from the seatbelt. It seems in a heavy frontal impact, that the energy wants or needs to go somewhere, and the direction is UP! Many things flew out of the open top, never to be seen again. The impact tried to do the same with us. But we had no cuts or bruises over our shoulder area. This we believe was due to the fact we had installed Scroth seatbelt pads.
