No safety and no insurance cover either but each to their own it`s their life.

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

Oh this could work out a lot more expensive than you think, do you have a-dccd fitted?

How do you connect the resistor?
my air bag light is on after fitting my omp wheel

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

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