Is this necessary?

My kids are all old enough to be forward facing now, and based on another thread on this site, I don't consider it beneficial to turn off the airbag anymore. But... if I wanted to, couldn't I just splice a labeled switch to short between the 2 wires under the passenger seat that the deactivation bar plugs into? In other words, does the forward buckle on the porsche child seats simply short across these wires when the buckle is inserted, or does it show the computer a certain specific resistance value that my switch would have to provide? Of course, the computer would still have to be programmed to recognize the signal. This would then have the advantage of allowing the use of any brand of car seat.
