Passenger Airbag Deactivation

Recommended Posts

I have a 2011 370Z GT (Nav), and was hoping to take my 2 year old son out in it. I understand the passenger air bag can be quite dangerous if it goes off, so is it possible to deactivate like you can in other Nissan's?

I know the US model has a sensor which automatically switches off the passenger airbag if the passenger is less than 50kg or so.

Any thoughts of any company that might be able to fit a switch?

Thanks

Peter

I think and I am guessing from what I have read in the pass is that there is a weight sensor in the passenger seat. If it detects weight but not of adult proportions the airbag light should illuminate on your dash indicating that it is off.

 

Then again I could be talking utter mince.

That's what I read but I think it's the US market only. My car doesn't have the Airbag2 light on the dash at all, so assume it doesn't have the sensor. Plus it doesn't mention it in the manual at all.

Anyone got other ideas? Surely some auto electrician somewhere can put a switch in??
