An airbag module is secured to the rigid seat frame member and oriented for deployment of the airbag through the seat back portion, the module including an airbag and inflator assembly, and a cover member for containing the airbag and inflator assembly and for providing a defined pathway for deployment of said airbag when inflated. Further included is an opening on the seat back portion forming part of the defined pathway, as well as a mounting bracket, including an arrangement for mounting of the airbag and inflator assembly, and an arrangement for fastening the bracket to the rigid seat frame member. Another feature is that a portion of the cover member overlies the defined pathway and fits into the opening in the seat back portion so as to serve as a door and to provide an external decorative cover.
