Reply to comment by fliguana in Tifu by ignoring the recall notice by T101yet
Where in any car user manual has there ever been detail on how to disable a safety system?
Manufacture don’t want to open up that liability for themselves….

I've had a car where the owner's manual contained instructions how to disable passenger side airbag. There was a key for that.
But that's beside the point.
OP wanted to reliably and reversibly deactivate SRS, I told him where to look.
He could also find and unplug the sensor/control unit (usually near firewall, inside cabin) or take out the inflators themselves, but that's more work and assumes mechanical savvy

That’s for occupant safety. Cars nowadays have seat mat sensors to deactivate from passenger airbags to prevent injury for small passengers.
Any modern car will not allow you disable the safety system easily, especially just by pulling a fuse. Not to mention most will store permanent fault codes that need a scan tool to reset if you tamper with the system.

You asked, I answered. Now you are moving goalposts instead of helping OP.

Read the second paragraph. You are advising the OP to tamper with a safety system….

That is correct. His safety system is subject to recall for being defective.
Are you the guy who sleeps on the mattress with a factory label still attached? I've heard of you 🤣
You can remove it now.
