Where is one of the sensors that can trigger the airbag light on a Mercedes C-Class located?

Model: Mercedes Classe C W204 - Years 2007-2013
Part: Airbag

In this video we see where the sensor of a Mercedes C-Class W205 version can be found, specifically the one that detects the presence of the passenger and activates the passenger airbag in case of an accident. This sensor can easily be damaged because, being located inside the seat belt buckle, it is often handled and therefore tends to be damaged more easily compared to others that remain hidden in more protected places. The control unit, which instead controls the entire airbag system, is generally located under the dashboard or in the center console.
