Passenger seat side air bag

Passenger seat side air bag
I have a 2001 accord EX-L 5speed, that I recently had a run in with a fox that netted me sliding sideways into a curb after my evasive manuevers to avoid the lil dude.............well he took the hit anyways, as well as my accord.
The passenger seat side air bag deployed, and it knocked my alignment out pretty good, but nothing bent in the way of suspension components underneath. The lips on the wheels are grinded up pretty good as well............
Anyways......my concern is this air bag. What are my options in getting this repaired? I see that there is a POD of some sort the bag deploys out of, as well as the stitching on the seat needs to sealed back up. Is this a dealer only situation????
I am in southern Maryland, Charles County..................
any guidance would be appreciatied.

The short answer is that I am not sure. I don't know how the SRS is set up on your accord, or what parts must be inspected/replaced when a bag is deployed.
I would get a hold of a shop manual (I think that you can download one from online manuals link in the DIY section) and read through the SRS section.
