How to Disable Passenger Airbags
You can disable the passenger airbags in your vehicle right from your home driveway, and it requires no special tools. Many vehicles come equipped with a key switch that allow you to disable the passengers airbag but not the drivers side airbag. To disengage all airbags, you can remove the airbag system fuse.
