Cool looking steering wheel vs not smacking head open in an accident - know which I'd choose!

(No idea about disabling light sorry - would expect you'd need a resistor to fool the sensor)

i took the airbag steering wheel off of my old mondeo and put on a momo wheel. i disconnected the battery and left it for 15-20 minutes before attempting to remove the airbag unit. i was under the impression that all aftermarket steering wheel bosses for airbag equipped cars had the appropriate wiring/connectors to sort this problem out.

i didn't have this issue with the mondeo, i took the lightbulb out from the dash display! :)

belie so yes if its off line you need 4 wheel laser alginment or maybe its had a knock etc but you shouldnt take wheel off and put it on straight
