Abstract
A restraints control module (RCM) assembly attached to the tunnel in the floor of a vehicle. The bracket includes a base plate supporting the restraints control module. A helmet shield is secured over the RCM and encloses the RCM on three sides. The helmet shield includes slots that extend downwardly and outwardly from opposite side of the helmet shield that receive a plurality of bolts as the helmet shield is moved in a vertically downward direction. Two vertically extending sidewalls of the helmet shield are assembled over the RCM with a clearance being defined between the sidewalls and the RCM. The helmet shield is adapted to protect the RCM in a side impact collision.
