Can anyone identify 8V airbag wires

[HUFset]

I have a single stage airbag 8V0880201N. I'm trying to retrofit it in a B5. I need to id the wires.
Blue - Horn
Brown - Ground
Green - Airbag?
Black - Airbag ground?

Basically, I can't determine the ground wire from the airbag. My intuition says black is ground. Dont worry about the weird harness that is from a B5 and I will repin it if I'm wrong. Thanks.


This is how the B5 is wired

try finding the same color wires on a non airbag and use volt meter to test.

I personally wouldn't mess with it in fear of it popping at some random time.

Is that airbag (lower pic) made by takara? the company recalling all their bags for killing people???

Not sure how multimeter will work on an airbag unless resistance is different between pins. The bottom is from a b5 a4/s4. I just need to figure out the 8v setup, I can easily figure out the b5, cuz I have the car and its documented.

Multimeter meaning you can find the same color wire on another device in the car that isn't the airbag and is hooked up to power to verify the color of wire to its function/voltage.

But putting a single stage airbag in a dual stage setup, isn't that going to complicate quite a bit and the reason why the 8V has the additional wire. B5 compared to this car is far more complicated and many components talk to one another. I still wouldn't risk trying to rig up an airbag that isn't made for the car as I'd still be worried about premature deployment.

These are both single stage airbags. I've seen a few people with this setup in the B5. I know the B5 configuration, that is documented. I'm looking to figure out the wire colors from the 8V. I don't have that car and need to id the airbag wiring from it.
