    hey anyone seen something that tells me what types of metal are inside of

    seatbelt buckles
    seatbelt detractors
    clocksprings
    steering wheel
    air bag
    air bag sensors
    and the air bag computer thing



    Im getting all of those from my job but I don't want to miss any special type of metal.
    the only metal I'm seeing are cast aluminum, gold, copper, aluminum, zinc, and I think brass.
