under front gaurd chassis rail area i think, from what i have been told the sensor is basicly a ball bearing in a housing that has x amount of friction holding it in place, if the car deacelerates fast enough the ball bearing shoots forward and shorts 2 contacts sending a signal to air bag computer under the console and it sets the bags off, i could be wrong but that is how it was explained to me, someone will correct me no doubt .
