If you want to kill the airbag lights wire a 2.8 Ohm resistor in each one. The resistor emulates the resistance of the airbags circuit and car thinks it will go boom if needed.

I like to play super Mario brother racer on my Nav screen while driving on the track

I am OK with the airbag warning light - give my instrument panel a Christmas tree like atmosphere
