I've done a search on this and it didnt reveal any amazing facts..
(MY99) - is it possible to easily disable the passenger airbag ? Something that anyone has done ? I find myself in the odd situation of wanting to "modify" the car for no performance gains http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif |
Would like to know also, though have heard that you can't do it simply. Someone did mention a 'hardwire' fix (ie cutting the bloody wire), let me know if you find out anything more useful.
PS: I find myslef in the same 'mod for no performance gain' ie. having a baby, boat http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |

Lee, suggest you go and buy a continental Pug 306. Latest ones have key-disabled passenger bag for child seat safety etc. etc.
If this doesn't appeal, owing to ssociated performance and handling downgrade - not to mention wheel on the wrong side, suggest you araldite (sp?) the seams. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif Suresh Price info: MY00 306 1.8 16V w/aircon & alloys for £8,800 in Zurich Vs UK price of abt. £14k. |
Lee -
as I replied in the last thread on this, I gave up the idea - though C+K in Manchester were confident it could be done by adding a dummy circuit with the same resistance as the passenger airbag - that way the driver airbag could be left active - there is some risk involved in doing this - possibility that the bag might deploy (!) - dangerous + expensive to replace if all went wrong. I am now 6 months into fatherhood and having the little one in the back is definitely preferable to having her in the front - I don't need to see the vomit to know its there ;-) cheers, Paul W |
why dont you ask IM technical, this is hardly a new topic in the UK is it.
I would be amazed if they dont have a kit to do this. |
