The title says it all, I'm thinking about swapping out my stock seats cause they are getting really faded and worn and was looking at the replica seats in the vendor section but I have the side airbags in the seats (heard this was an optional feature from the factory?) but I was just wondering if changing out these seats would cause the SRS light to come on and if so how does it turn off? Thanks guys

To be short and not-so-sweet... Yes, you will throw an Airbag/SRS light.

You can always add a resistor to 'trick' the system into thinking the plug is still plugged in. I forget the ohm's, but I know SHG Easy has a thread about this.

I did swap the driver seat for my bro in law's 04 and no light came on. I disconnected the negative from the battery before I did it, however his radio is asking for a code.
