Does the passenger airbag turn off if the person does not weigh a certain amount? I was wondering if it was safe for my 8 year old to ride up front.

 

TMK...the airbag is not activated due to weight in the pass. seat...so don't put kids there.

 

There is a kit from porsche that you need for doing that and the vehicle needs to be properly coded for it. The kit includes a third seat belt buckle that hooks to a special bar that mounts under the seat and the buckle hooks up with a special harness. I had a boxster that i had to remove this system. I had to recode the car for the removal.

 

great info. Thanks.
