hub to hub isn't the best way as standard tolerences are mounting points within up to a 10mm sphere (lotus elises work to 3mm which are the tightest) and by the time thats at the hub they can be quite far out.
Unless its had a side swipe and not remember the damage to the lag I would say the cabin is still true to cheack diagonals in the boot and the bay, pay attention tot he seam sealer which although little used on the newer ones goves a good idea if somethings moved a lot.
Wishbones etc all bend pretty easily/tear off these days so a lot of damage is avoided, it makes getting them off the trsansporter a bugger though!
Airbags, I told you this before, once it pops if you just plugt in new airbaghs the light will eithe rcome on or they will pop. You can have them reset by companies that do ecu unlocking etc etc
Also I haven't done any new ren accident damage (theres no value in renaults) but the fords etc, just get another airbag ecu, plug in its fine. Most recent car btw was 06 fiesta.
Theres no element to reprogramming, as its a standalone system.
You'll need a new dashtop due to the airbag anyway, also the trim, is it the whiteor brown powder? the brown is really hard to remove if its not been wiped off quick so may need other trim.
Avoid the dealers as their business is to sell stuff, not help you. Occasionally there may be a usefull guy there but often when he is discovered as 'helpful' hes relocated out the back where you can't talk to him!
