Hi all. After a couple of weeks we have finally re-built the front end of a ibiza 1.4 TSi Cupra. Put on 2 new headlights, radiator and Intercooler change front wings, bonnet and bumper sourced from a doner car and replaced. Full dash rip out and replace and 2 airbags sourced. Now, all this may sound impressive as it was done using this site and YouTube but now I'm a bit stuck!!!! I'm getting contradicting information about what we need to do with the seat belts (both front ones are stuck) and the ECU. We also still don't have any power steering. What I'm being told is that once the ECU is cleared of crash data, the power steering will correct itself?!?!?!? Does this sound right?? I know the seatbelts will need resetting as well. It is also advisable to NOT connect the new airbags up until the crash data is cleared????

I thought the engine bits and pieces were beyond me but this is now next level!!! Any help or advice on these matters would be appreciated!!!

Happy Easter all!!
