I thought children under 12 shouldn't ride in the car because of the airbags(assuming they can't be turned off).

Here's a thread all about this....

Short and skinny is that most dealerships will sell you the part, but won't install the switch for you due to liability. This is a "high-risk" procedure, and results in deaths every year due to airbags activating during the switch install.

I had a switch installed by Sensible Solutions (http://www.airbagonoff.com) and they did a great job. Some people don't like it because it's aftermarket, but the factory switch install is pretty messy from what I understand.

Here's a link to some pics on my server showing what this install looks like. This link is also in the thread referenced above.

Hope this helps.
