Just replaced my Omega seats with some nice SS ones and thought it would be fun to set off the air bags in the old seats......I also have another set of SS seats that were from ebay but were **** so I have four to do..........Now theres 3 wires and I'm assuming I'd have to apply 12volts to which wires though......I will extend the wires a long way away from the seats to keep it safe hoping of course voltage drop isnt too much of an issue........I'm sure I will cop some grief, its dangerous blah blah blah.......

I've seen a steering wheel air bag go off many many year's ago when they started to appear in cars at a Training session at then GMH in Dandenong......As a Locksmith there was concern at the time they might go off when working on Car ignitions......funny how now we dont give them a second thought but back then we had a whole procedure to disarm the air bag before starting work and never had a head over the air whilest getting close and personal with the ignition lock

This will be interesting to watch. See if you can put up a video when you do it.

On the topic of airbag deployment, I have been seeing an increasing number of people lately who think they're cool by sitting in the passenger seat and putting their feet up on the dash.
Mainly stupid young women who have absolutely no concept of the explosive forces involved in an airbag deployment and what sort of horrific injuries they could sustain as a result. I can only shake my head.
