Default quick question

I just installed Sparco seats in my 04 CE and have two questions:
#1: after removal of the OEM seat the telescoping steering wheel does not function. Is it wired through the seat module???
#2: after installation of the Sparco passenger seat will the air bag deploy???
Sure would appreciate any insight.
Thanks
Don

All memory and telescopic wheel functions are controlled via the seat control module.

Yes your Air Bag will work.


Possible Solutions.

- Take the seat control module of the seat, plug it in and leave under the seat.

- Call Pfadt Racing. I thing they something for the C6 so maybe they did something for the C5.

My 2002 Z06 would not start without the seat control module plugged in.
