Default Disable Passenger Airbag

How do I disable the passenger side air bag on a 2001 LS430? I need to put a front-facing car seat there for a 6-year old.

If I have to disable the whole SRS system, it's OK, as it's just for the weekend.

Removing the fuse doesn't seem to be an option, as it also controls the engine immobiliser system and steerling lock system.

Thanks for your ideas!

I would not use that car if the backseat is already occupied by other children-toddlers.
