recaro sportster CS comes with an option for airbags in the seat itself. maybe you could get that type and plug the connector in.

i think this problem was solved on vwvortex somehow, i forget how they did it though.

well everytime u install something u always have 2 disconnect the battery, once u do that u can remove ur seats

thats how i installed my bride

i dono if that answers ur question, if ur talking about the SRS light that comes on after uv installed ur seat, u need a resistor 2 bypass and trick the system into thinking there is still a airbag in there, but no1 has done that yet or figured out resistance
