bump. curious as well.

Is the only option to replace with a full seat if the airbag is deployed? Can dealership or specializing garages install an airbag from one seat into another?

it's not possible to do that, since you have sensors on the side door, so let say if you do remove the airbag, then you have A) you have a gaping hole on the side of the seat, and B) the side airbag light will come on.

His side airbag went off and he wants to transplant an undeployed airbag from a cloth seat into his leather one...

Are there people (or dealerships) that do this?
