I agree...it sounds ridiculous. I argued with the tech and the sales guy. I told them, "Then why don't you say that in your list of features of the harness? You list things like, "Retains Door Chimes"...don't you think you should list, "Retains Airbag functionality?!??!"
They told me, "It's not with all models that use that harness...so we couldn't list that...no."
Anyone else care to give them a call and double check my findings? Any installer out there know for a fact?
I mean, the only way for me to find out is if I hit something and my airbags don't deploy.
