Default Re: Disabling SRS bulb in 97 Accord Wagon

Didn't work unfortunately - the SRS light still came on.

Anyhew, I dug out my shop manual, which wasn't completely clear for once.

The steps to remove the SRS bulb were:
1. Remove central console
2. Remove stereo
3. Extract and disconnect switches in dash surround -
demister/sunroof/dimmer in my case
4. Remove dash surround - 6 screws (I didn't bother disconnecting the heater
control cable)
5. Extract dash module - 4 screws and three green connectors to separate
6. Take the *back* off by undoing clips
7. Remove the circuit board by undoing about 11 screws
8. Pull the bulb
9. Installation is the reverse of removal (apart from step 8!)

Hope this helps someone else - it was quite a hassle and took me about 1hr,
but I reckon I could do it in 20mins if I needed to do it again. Definitely
worth it as my visibility while night-driving is a lot better without a
bright red glare in my eyes the whole time.
