05 Trailblazer - Replacement Airbags

Hi everybody - I own an 05 Trailblazer in Quito, Ecuador. It was recently in an accident, and I'm trying to save money buying the airbags in the US and shipping them down here.

Unfortunately, when I look online or even call dealers in the US, they can't use my VIN to look in their catalogs because my vehicle was assembled in Venezuela.

VIN - 8ZNDT13SX5V313809

I need to know how to find the exact part numbers that a US dealer can understand! The parts in Ecuador cost 2000.00 per airbag:banghead:, and I've found them used in the US for 400.00, for both bags! :iceslolan

Here are the numbers I got directly off the bags:
Driver's side - AB2395QIE8BRD5
Passenger side - AL1177M9YARW29
Impact sensor - AD7445X58M7R and 15077445

On each part, they say "Made in Mexico". Does anyone know if all the parts are the same, no matter where they are assembled? If I buy parts in the US for an 05 Trailblazer, will they fit my Trailblazer here in Ecuador?? Do I run any risks trying this?

Any help, suggestions or ideas will be MOST helpful. Thank all of you in advance, I really need some good advice on this one!!

The numbers on the air bags are not part numbers. They are the manufacturer's ids. You also need the DERM, main SIRS deployment module. Why can't you get the part numbers from the dealer you bought the truck from. You are playing with fire trying to do this without 100% confidence you have the right parts.
