I am going to go with no. Airbags have come a long way in the last ten years and they are constalty changing and becoming safer. Todays airbags deploy a lot less violently than our old systems not to mention as to when they actually deploy. Because of the drastic differences I would doubt that it would plug right in. Even if it did I bet it would not even work.
