How to deactivate the passenger airbag on a Mini Cooper.

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Airbag

In this short video tutorial, we can see the simple procedures to follow to deactivate the passenger airbag on a three-door Mini Cooper. The on/off switch for activating or deactivating the passenger side airbag is located on the right side of the dashboard where the door closes, behind the air vent. Once we have located the switch, we need to remove the emergency key from the remote control using the appropriate release button, and insert it into the switch. Then, we rotate the key clockwise to select the "off" setting to complete the task.

Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the vehicle's original roof rails.
