Default STI seats into WRX

Hi, can anyone help with this problem please.
I have recently bought some STI seats MY06 to fit into my WRX MY 03, the WRX has seat airbags and the STI does not, it is not possible to fit the airbags into the STI seats,
I now have the seat airbag wiring with nowhere to go which means the dashboard airbag warning light is on.
Any suggestions how to sort the wiring to stop the warning light coming on ?

Thanks
Steve

The airbag isnt in the seat, its a sensor that detects someone sitting in it. Measure the resistance of the sensor in the WRX seat and then connect this resistance across the car loom plug. The light should go out if its the correct resistance.

Arent the airbags in the rear of the front seats to protect the rear passengers?
There is a SBS airbag (i think SBS) label on the back of my front seats IIRC
