this may need to be moved to the proper subforum but, to answer your question as long as the battery is disconnected there shouldn't be anything to worry about.

......and with the other circuitry fully drained... i.e. take the battery cables CLEAR OFF, take no chances...

and while they are off hit the brakes, flip the key to acc, anything to drain the rest. you won't see anything happen, but it can't hurt!!!

actualy, after you disconnect the battery you should disconnect the airbag mod. its located under your console. this way the airbag is totally disconected from power.
