Default ?repercussions of removing 1 of the side curtain airbags????

Hello all

I am wondering if anyone knows the repercussions of removing one of the side curtain airbags (besides the obvious of course of not havine a side curtain airbag on 1 spot)

I am hoping to remove the driver side curtain bag.

Will this 'mess up' my airbag system?
Will there be some light/alert?
Will my airbags be rendered useless?


Thanks alot..

I assume you want gauges there. There is another solution for people with side airbags...

removing 1 will most likely disable the whole system.

Exactly - i have a 3 gauge pillar pod I want to mount.. I am aware it is less than legal (so is speeding). I should have stated that I didnt care about that "repercussion".

I want to know if the system will still function with a single side-curtain (virtually unimportant) airbag disconnected.. or do I need to whip up a jumper ..

* I have heard guesses both ways.. "airbags will still work" or "it will break the entire system" What I am hoping is someone knows for sure ;)

thanks,

Shan

Here is some information on the SRS system of the tC.

Dunno if that will help.
