Default Airbag light on with Passenger

Got my 07 GS350 Black Sapphire Nav/ML with GSpiders last week and I love it.
Just one thing bothering me (Aside from the nav hack wait ) is can you switch that airbag on warning light off or have it delay to off when a passenger is sitting in the car.

Just amazes me that at night you have this beautiful interior and wham that ORANGE light is glowing and breaking it up. I know just a personal preference thing. Any insight would be great. Not much when I did a search.

Agree. Seems odd to have it on the whole time. I imagine the only real solution is to pull the bulb. Congrats on the ride.

Thanks for the replys. I am sure it is all a legal thing as well. Anyway, thought it was worth a shot.

Now if we could just get that nav hack.

I just drove a 2008 GS350 for the first time. One of the small things that bothered me was the warning -- airbag is on -- that never went away.

Having a warning light that always stays on is both a visual distraction and a safety issue, since, over time, it trains your brain to igore all warning lights.

Has anyone figured out to get rid of this?
