The drivers side is easy. It is just like in the post from the OP. If you are talking about the passenger than here is that info.


It's actually pretty simple. You need to have someone who has the "hog clips" and tool to re attach the seat cover after.

Flip the seat over and pull the cover off from the front. There are little white plastic tabs that hold the cover on. Pull those off and then peel back the seat cover. You are trying to expose the top of the seat where your ass goes, lol.

To do that you need to cut two little clips holding the seat cover on. Once those are cut you can see that green and black sensor. It is glued to the foam. You can just work it off with your fingers. Now it goes all the way back and there is a bar that goes across the back of the seat which makes it a pain in the ass but it can be done with just pulling those two clips.

After that it is attached to some wires that run down to the connector. You need to fish it through the bottom of the seat and out.

Once you have the sensor and the connector you just use the resistor as you did on the drivers side and then plug the seat sensor in. We tucked it under the carpet because taking the evo seat cover involved a lot more work.

I plan on having my seats recovered and when they do I am going to have them put the sensor in the recaro seat. It will work just like factory when I do that.

Right now with the sensor folded up and tucked under the carpet the car thinks that there is always someone in the seat and turns the airbag on.

So I get a nanny light and buzzer unless I have the seat belt plugged in.

Oh also just an FYI the seat belt connectors, grey, need to be plugged in too otherwise you get a light.
