question for installing GT3 Seats

Is it normal to have an airbag failure light after installing GT3 seats?

this is what has been done...
the original wire (with that clip case) was cut off from the sports seat (all wires cut off except the seat belt one)

and i used the case to hold the seat belt warning wire for the gt3 seats....

then after i start the engine...the airbag signal is on...

also, is it a good idea to cut off the connecting case off from the original seats? and only left the seat belt warning wire uncut and reinstalled on the new seats?

Sincerely,

Kevin

Kevin when you installed the seats did you have the Key in the Ignition? If so that is what will set off your airbag light.

i think that's the case...
hahahaha...i just read the previous thread...i guess i gotta bring my car back to dealer to reset it....~><~

btw...do you think it's alright that i cut the connecting box on the original seats? i cut all the wires except the one for seatbelt...
and use the box to hold the seatbelt wire in place on the new seats...

~><~
i wonder if it's gonna be a hard fix if i wanna put my seats back in the future...sigh...
