Default Air bag problem for 997 GT3Rs

Does anyone know if there is a hack for the airbag light when we discard the phony adaptive sport seats and install the correct CGT seats for the RS.

just as with other 997's you can ask your dealer to deactivate it for you

Why pay for the adaptive seats?
And yes, it will be easy to fool the car into thinking air-bags exist.

The question is will you replace the stock seats with the ROW RS/CGT seats or with something else?

I'm leaning something else but I'm not sure yet...
