Default Newbie Question

Hello all! I'm considering purchase of an S2K but my only concern is that I do have the need to use a child seat in it at times . I've done some reading on retrofitting passenger airbag disable switches, and wonder if anyone here has heard or experiance with this in the S2K.
I really want to get one of these, but I do have to convice the wife and be SOMEWHAT practical.
Any info is greatly appreciated!
Thx.

Sorry, it's not practical. No baby seats in the S2K- unsafe. Undoing the airbag sensor/ switch/ whatever leaves it unsafe for a full size passanger. Sorry.

Here is a past Post on the switch. Below are some more companies that provide switches.

http://www.airbagswitches.com/

This company makes switches for every car made.

This company actually has the picture I posted below of the switch installed in a S2000.

Thxs everyone... I'm crossing my fingers that there's a solution that'll work for me! Not that I'll have to have the seat in there much... but I gotta be a responsible dad too!

Thanks again!

I almost bought a used S with a disable switch. I also saw a thread where somebody had it done for around $300.
