Yeah it has been bothering me ever since we bought it. And as far as getting another car goes, I'm broke as Fuc lol. When I pull the fuse is the SRS light going to come on? If so should I pull the cluster and remove that bulb?

If the seat is moved back she can't reach the pedals lol and if it's reclined she can't see over the hood. She's a dwarf lol.

you cant pull the fuse, its usually hooked in with the fuel pump, so when the air bag blows the fuel pump cuts off (honda wise) . Just take the **** off the steering wheel and leave it open.

You can go to Summit Racing in McDonough and pick up a Grant wheel/hub for like $120. Tell her she can pick the color. That will appeal to the preggo hormones.

DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND WAIT 3 MINUTES.


on the bottom of the steering wheel, there should be a small cover, remove it, there will be a yellow plug, unplug it (it can be tricky, it is a safety plug) and that will disable the airbag, the SRS light will be on, but the bag absolutely cannot fire if it is unplugged.

I built her another set of pedals out of titanuim :ninja: that sat in front of her original pedals. She could reach the pedals but not the steering wheel lol. I'm just going to unhook it. Anything I should do besides unhook the battery 3 minutes before?

This is a bad idea in all, an its against the law to do this, now if you do it, then she gets into a wreck an get hurt really bad, then your insurance is going to wonder why it didnt go off, an then find out you did it, an they will not insurard anything, nor help your wife, insurance wise, I say you or someone else, drives her around, I bought my wife a Car that didnt have Air bags, Just for that reason, then sold it after words,, my 0.02 cents,though
