Default Advise with airbag removal;

Basically, my cars got airbags in its seats and i fancy changing them for some aftermarket ones, i know the airbag light will come on and the other airbags wouldnt deploy in the event of a crash, but is there any way around this? Any advise would be appreciated.

Find the resistance of the airbag you intend to leave out, then fit a resistor of that value in line to the wire/conenctor to the bag, it will then think the bag is there.
