I believe the sensor points are just piezoresistive based load cells. Assuming I'm right, making a switchable airbag box (on/off) would simple be a matter of replacing the sensor points with 2 resistors. One set of resistors would be "Off" and the other set would be "On".

The 4.7 ohm resistors have to be used to simulate the airbag itself. Without it the system knows the airbag is missing and as a result generates a error.
