Default How to disengage airbags?

Guys,

I tried to search but I either couldn't come up with the right search words or else I am just an idiot.

I am removing my whole dash so I need to disengage my airbags so they don't go off in the removal process. Anyone have a step by step on how to do it. I know on my old Legend it was pretty sinple anbd just involved disconnecting from one plug and connecting to another. Help would be appreciated. It is on a 93 so there is passenger and drivers airbags.

thx,

jonny

I got faith in my boy!! Just wanted to double-check as I know that most cars have plugs that need disconnected from red and connected to yellow plugs.

Thx dawgs!
