My airbag light went on after I swapped my two front seats.
Passenger seat had a "pretensioner" which I guess is the airbag, driver side didn't.
now the light on the dash is on.
p.s. i have a grey cloth interior and i managed to get two grey leather seatys for 170, tax in.

Just swap your seat buckle assembly from your old seats and you should be fine.

Its part of the airbag system, when your in a rash that tightens up and sucks the passenger back in their seat.
