G'day all,
A quick question. Can the SRS airbag system be legally disabled on a 96 Disco?
Why? I want to modify the vehicle.

x2 what he said - it was a reasonably interesting discussion.
As to actually doing it - with battery disconnected, it's relatively easy. Find yourself a non SRS steering wheel, and operate on the dash to remove the little bulbs that illuminate the SRS warning light and fit a grab handle. You'll still have a hole in the passenger side dash, but it's not too bad. You also need to fabricate or find a non SRS horn connector. Also remove the SRS warning stickers so you don't have problems during inspections.

Thanks, I'm currently searching but not having much luck with specifics.
I would've thought that it would need to be engineered?
