A passenger protection apparatus (24) for a motor vehicle is provided comprising a first interior trim member (12) and a second interior trim member (18). The first interior trim member, preferably an instrument panel, is attached to the motor vehicle and the second interior trim member is attached to the first interior trim member. The second trim member is attached to the first trim member such that the second trim member is removable from the first trim member without detaching the first trim member from the vehicle. The second trim member is located in the knee impact region of the vehicle and comprises a first energy management device in the form of an inflatable restraint apparatus having an airbag (26) and an inflator (28). In this manner, the passenger protection apparatus provides a structure which includes an inflatable restraint apparatus which is easily replaceable in a vehicle without having to remove the instrument panel.
