1. If I had side airbags and now I don't, will the airbag ecu be looking for them and show an error as they're not there? Yes
2. Where is the airbag ecu? Under the centre console mounted to the exhaust tunnel
3. If 1. is yes, how do I reset my ecu so it doesn't know they should be there. You can't. You need to buy resistors to put in the plugs where the airbags used to plug in. Contact Cully on here
4. How much of a ball ache is it to get to the passenger airbag (in the dashboard)? not the easiest of jobs put it that way!
5. If I have a airbag light on, does that mean chances are my airbags won't go off anyway? (Has anyone had an airbag light present and a crash to tell?) or does it depend on the fault? It should disable the system if the light is on but there are rumours of people crashing with them on and airbags going off.
