2008 Carrera 4S Cabrio roll over bar

[993GT2]

I just bought a 2008 Carrera 4S Cabrio that was involved in a accident, unfortunately both front airbags were deployed and the roll over bars are extended, my questions are:

What do I need to change in the SRS system to make it operational again besides the two airbags?

How do I retract the roll over bars?

Thanks in advance,

Sergio

there should be instructions in the manual on how to manually retract the roll bar.

Besides retracting the rollbar and replacing the airbags you will also likely need to replace the seat belts as they use a one=time use pyrotechnic charge that fires the belt lock in an accident.

Tha manual says to take the car to a Porsche workshop.

You bought a Porsche that had been rolled ? Hope you got a great price on it.

Actualy it was a very small front hit, but the roll over bars were deployed.

Thanks Loren for the fast reply

Best,

Do you have a picture of the roll bars up? I have never seen mine.
