Also, remember that airbags are "suplemental restraints" and are there to protect folks who do NOt wear their seat belts. If you always buckle up, you could easily remove the airbags and be just as safe. Maybe go Momo.

That isn't true, unfortunately. It might be closer to true with a 4 point harness and HANS device.
