I'm confused too. Are you saying that it's safer to remove airbags from the car? I could only see this being true if you have a full cage.

To be honest I don't really like the idea of swapping the front seats. If I'm only autocrossing the car, it kind of sucks that most of the weight reduction I can get comes from removing one of the biggest safety features of the car. Would love to lose that weight, but I can't see myself driving the car on the streets without those side airbags.

On a side note I never understood people who replace the front airbag with an aftermarket steering wheel.
