Removing it or just unplugging it will cause the light to come on. | |

theres a switch that can be fitted but airbag ecu needs reprogramming to allow it to work | |

You can get behind it and unplug it yourself for free, depends how happy you are taking the dash apart. | |

Pay an auto electrician to put it on a switch. Must be able to do it if it was an optional extra | |

£50 is a bargain IMO. | |

can you not just remove a fuse or relay somewhere that'd do it? | |

I'm betting for the £50 it'd cost at Ford, you could probs by the tool you need yourself for half the price and do it when you choose. | |

Yeah its for my little boys car seat. Apparently it would have been an optional extra but it wasnt mentioned to us when we got the car. The rest of the extras were offered mind. | |

Not all cars use a key, iirc on the 'C' it has to be done by a Tech2 and i'd say it likely to be the same for a KA. Another option is remove it completely but it'll be a bit of a pain in the arse though. | |
