How do I disable the passenger airbag on a 99 cpe?
I know you could turn of the passenger airbag halfway through the 2000 model year. I have a friend getting a 99 Cpe next week. How can he disable the passenger side airbag? Is it as easy as pulling a fuze or is it more involved?
Side note: For you Leos out there, is this legal?

Do it yourself for $110 and it is a fool proof plug, the plug only fits that airbag and they are color coded.
