Default 2002 SS radiator replacement.

I have a 2002 SS. I need to replace the radiator. I cant find the yellow wire under the dash to unhook the air bags, What all do I have to dis connect of the air bag system to safely remove the radiator?

Thank you for your replies.

I replaced my radiator with an upgraded BeCool dual core one on my SS, stock is a single core.

One of the air bag sensors sits just forward of the radiator. Personally, I've had the radiator in and out several times and never came close to disturbing the air bag sensor, and in any case, working under the hood poses no harm if it were to deploy. Otherwise, just disconnect the battery but make sure your radio has the theft mode disabled first. Air bags need electricity to deploy. No battery. No electricity.
