You cannot escape by removing the bulb; when they scan the computer (which they will do), it will still indicate all faults present, including any missing MIL bulbs (yes, there is actually a code for that as well).

You need to get the electronics to think that the air bags are still there by using resistors in the air bag circuits (no, I do not know the required rating, you would need to figure that out by testing the components you are removing). When the computer looks for the air bags by testing the circuits, it will think everything is OK and act accordingly.

I have no idea how you will get by the visual inspection...............
