Are there any guides to installing air bags? If not on the LS specifically, does anyone have any guides in general? I'm wanting to bag my LS really bad but I need some information.

Number one and most important, disconnect the battery, the negative cable.
The steering column is straight forward; on the back of the forks are two screws with covers; remove them, the center comes out, and you can see what wirers have to be disconnected.
Any of the other you have to be more specific, passenger side, head curtains, or side bolsters.
But always disconnect the battery; you do not want any loud surprises.

If you are looking for some general info on how air ride suspension works and whats involved with putting a system together try checking out streetsourcemag.com and read through the forums its mostly for mini trucks but you can learn alot on how to put a system together. basically what you need is
a tank, compressor, valves 8 would be the best, 3 gauges, switches, air line, fittings and bags http://www.suicidedoors.com/how_to/w...ams/8valve.gif
It should be pretty easy to bag a LS. The bags will be bolt on. but the problem I have been running into is finding a good set of bags what I have found is some air cylinders witch I might try but the ride will not be as good. I was working with easystreet air (air lift co.) trying to get a kit together but its gonna cost alot more and the lack of money has kinda put that on hold. hope this helps if you need more specific help let me know

Its pretty much just general info for most cars. What would be different "sometimes" would just be running the lines and then the electronics.
