Mike, I am in need of the resistors used to stop the airbag warning light from illuminating when replacing the front seats in my 04 mcs.
Can you help with these?

Sorry its not something we do

I think an easy fix for this problem would be to simply disconnect the main 12v battery before carrying out any work & only reconnecting it again when completed.
If you`re replacing the front seats with non-airbag alternatives then just measure the resistance value between the 2 leads going to the seat {when disconnected}, & replace with a similar high wattage resistor from Maplin etc.

Not tried this myself but seems logical it would work

I have ordered the resistors direct from Mini. I am replacing the seats with
R56 JCW/Recaros.

I had to get mine from Mini UK.
You need 2 of each.
