    I was hoping to put some aftermarket seats in my 2010 DCSB. I find the stock ones uncomfortable for long drives.
    I know that they have airbags in the seats and if I remove them, the airbag system faults and the light goes on.
    Is there any way of tricking system for just the seat airbags so the rest stay functioning and the light goes out? Just seeing if anyone has done it on here.

    Thanks!

    There is a way, but it's not appropriate to post on a public forum how to disable a safety feature. The information you seek is easily obtainable on the internet from other sources. Some shady people use aftermarket fake air bag covers, stuff the cover with dirty laundry and use a procedure to trick the light into turning off and then sell it with a salvage title.
