Bypass the pass seat switch?

I'm looking to remove the front passenger seat (permanently). Is it easy enough to bypass the airbag switch? Like just jump a pair of terminals?

The system will be looking for the passenger presence pressure switch, so if you just jump those terminals, you might set off the air bag. Seeing as most folks don’t remove the air bag switch, due to legal conditions, I don’t know, how you could do it safely.

For legal reasons, we can't tell you on an open forum how to bypass a SRS in an automobile.

Why not just remove the presence pressure switch from the seat, plug it back into the harness, then hide it and the wiring under the carpet.

Maybe I'll just grab a switch/seat from a junkyard and cut it out and and plug it in a little box. (aka: let it think there is a seat there)

As you wish, it’s your HHR . I’m going to close this now.
