Do I need to replace the airbag sensors?

I hit a deer ith my G coupe sport. the wheel bag deployed and I think the belt is frozen.
do I need to replace the bag sensor up front? as well as replace the seatbelt? on the drivers side? also does anyone know of a diagram of where the sensors are located?
Any help would be great

Insurance, OEM's, and I-car require sensor replacement for proper repair. That being said, most of the rebuilders I know reuse them if they are not physically damaged. The effected sensors will probably be on the core support somewhere and will have yellow or orange plugs. The seatbelt will need to be rebuilt or replaced.

The SDM (sensing and deployment module) will need to be removed (under center console), and the crash data will need to be cleared. Mine was reset by Safety Restore who also rebuilds seatbelts. Look on eBay and you can find a bunch of other people who do belts and SDM's.
