An occupant protection system which deploys a deployable air bag from a concealed inner location in a vehicle instrument panel having an opening. An air bag portion covers the opening sufficiently to conceal the air bag in a concealed location. Upon deployment, the air bag portion remains as a portion of the air bag. This allows the air bag to inflate and fully deploy uninhibited, and eliminates the potential for an air bag cover or pieces thereof to be propelled toward, and injuriously impact, the occupant. |
