Default Passenger Side Air Bag Blockoff's

First off I only have 1 seat in the car, so there will be no passengers in this seat. Do they make them for preludes or will the EK hatch block off's work ?

hmm would it be ? im not sure i have never removed it. So the cover can be removed seperately of the air bag ?

So then what is the point of these block off trays ?

Im reading to use a 4 ohm resistor across the circuit. Can anyone verify this ?

What year? If it's a 4th gen you can just swap in the 92/93 dash and it'll be cleaner than a blockoff

well i pulled the airbag itself out which is a piece of cake and the dash cover comes off of the air bag and snaps right back into place. The only issue here is what size resistor to run and also that the plug is a male plug therefore u can not just run each end on the resistor into the terminal. What I was thinking was that i need the female end of the plug with alittle wire coming out of each side and soldering the resistor in series.

O and BTW i put the airbag on the scale and it only weighs 8 lbs

Wat about removing the driver airbag? Can you take the bag out and put the cover back on?

measure the resistance through the airbag, and find a resistor to match(assuming the bag is not blown of course)

Ive thought of that but the problem with that is when u measure resistance the multimeter actually sends voltage through the circuit to measure, and im not trying to have an airbag going off lol
