Default Air Bag Kill Switch

Just installed my Passanger Kill Switch from airbagonoff.com

It was not that bad to install & they give you all the parts you need. It is even easier to install on an 04 model thanks to the power outlet being right there to power the light button.

Swith was $140.00 plus S/H

Installed would cost $400.00

Read the manual. With children under age of 12, you better turn the air bag off for safety reason.

Default No pics - sorry

But if I did - You would only see the little box mounted at the bottom of the dash to the right of the 04 power outlet. - All the wires are concelled -

All you do to conect it is cut the 4 air bag wires that go to the bag. Run two of the wires to 4 of the wires (2 wires cut) to four wires on the switch box. The other 4 wires (2 wires cut) get wired back to there original cut along with 2 wires with the switch (In essence patching the switch into the flow.)

The panel below the air bag is tricky the first time to remove.
The key is to open the cup holder. Remove the gold screw that holds on the front face of the cup holder. Then push the cup holder big bracket back into the dash. Look under the holder and see a gold nut (10mm - of course) loosen the gold nut with an extentions socket set. Then there is only one screw in the bottom right corner - and one bolt in the power outlet (if so equiped).

If you decide to purchase one PM me and I will give you as much information as you desire.

PS the light on the swith is orange and matches the rest of the car.

Thanks for the post! I will have to go this route myself, if I ever want to take my kids in my Z

Email me, if you ever take a picture of where you mounted yours.
I would probably mount mine where it wasn't visable..

Default There are several options...

... available. You can buy the kit and install yourself, have them come out and install or you can buy the directions to have the airbag turned off all the time. The key is for permanently turning off the airbag it is just a list of instructions. if any one is interested I'll share the cost of these instructions and send copies. There is one piece that needs to be purchased in conjunction with the instructions so the idiot light on the dash stays off. It's really cheap though.

If there is interest let me know by email awlnrmo@earthlink.net

I'll be doing one of these soon as well.

Andy
