You probably have to connect the airbag. And since it will not stop flashing I don't think they'll work if you get into an accident.

The airbags won't deploy, as the system detects a failure... so it sets everything into "safe" mode, per say. What about taking the airbag module out of your old seat and just plugging it in underneath your new one? Sounds reasonable to me....

might have to by the sounds of it i thought someone may have known how to bridge the system so it thinks the airbag is present

They probably are ways to bypass an airbag, but do you really want to play with your safety in an event of an accident?
