When you're done, the air bag light can be reset with the durametrics tool.

Actually if you disconnect the battery before you do this there will be no air bag light. I have done this 3 times...don't ask. I also have the DIY if you need it pm me your email.

No, but you have to remove the headlights to remove the B-pillar.



Uhmmm.... just kidding about the headlights.

Just word of caution folks --
MY02 and newer cars have pyrotechnical (explosive) discharge seat belt tensioners. So, be careful handling these and transporting them.
Also, you can not just throw these in the trash - they have to be rendered harmless (triggered) before being discarded.
