seat install "issue"

First, Rockitman - your install photos helped - thank you.
So, I got the GT3 seats installed, and all is well, except I have the Airbag fault light.
The car has (had) heated / motorized seats (a few surprise black boxes under the drivers seat & I think the issue may be there?).
All that was "plugged into" the new seats were the seatbelts.
2 questions:
1) Does anyone know the solution?
2) Is it OK to drive the car to the dealer Monday (I have an appt for various misc items)?

thanks in advance for any insight.

Doug,
Make sure you zip tie the seatbelt connection to the harness otherwise it can easily fall out and initiate the air bag light. THe interesting thing is that it is not just a light. The airbags lose their ability to function so don't go too long without tending to it.

ya, been there - done that...
zip ties are my friend!
Although I am more afraid of it going off accidentally than not at all.
