Both Audi and VW have a switch option - key operated - to turn off the passenger airbag.


Anyone know if this is available on any of the Seats?

Also, could it be retro fitted ?

I need to turn this off for rear facing child seat but don't want to have to ask the dealer every time i want it on or off and I don't want to turn it off until the child is old enough to face forward !!

I think this is one of the 2003 changes - key operated passenger airbag defeat....

This may well be a stupid question...but does passenger airbag have it's own fuse? Fuse box is easy enough to access.....

I don't think so. I think the only way to do it is to go to the Seat dealer who'll deactivate it with the VAGCOM thingy.
