If you're removing airbags, I would suggest installing harnesses. Then inform your insurance company. Then you'll be insured and safe

Safety isnt a problem my car is harnessed with bucket seats and insurance know about the mod so I am covered

@mshill - I spliced mine into the airbag wires but you can also use the connector block
