yea my mights on and i hit v-tec just fine... but since we are on the topic, how can you find out what is causing your SRS light to come on... and im assuming you wont pass inspection with it.

make sure your airbag is connected and working properly in the steering wheel. or you can just take out the bulb. but when connecting the airbag BE CAREFUL that is does not deploy on you. handle with CARE!!

I highly recommend not messing with the SRS unless you know what you're doing. Air bags were mandatory on the driver side in the steering wheel after a certain year, so depending on your laws it could be illegal to remove the air bags and operate the vehicle on a public road.
