    I gave a drunk friend a ride home, they got mad, and punched the dash area above my glove box, (where the air bag would come out)...now theres a "dent" and its really annoying to have to see it every day... can I replace that? I assume that you would have to replace that area if your airbag unit deployed...?
    Or (this may sound dumb...) but could I pull it out with a dent puller? I doubt that would be possible though.

    What has the person who put the dent in it said about it?

    You have to replace the entire dash... I had to do it when I bought my truck with the airbag deployed. I got mine from a junkyard for $200.

    Good luck
