I want to replace the stock seats so....
Does anybody know of a tuner that makes seat bracket, and a plug to defeat the airbag on a 2000 S4?
On a side note my seat with out the heating element weight in at 58.5 pounds each.
Me on the scale 148.0 pounds;
Me on the scale, plus the seat a stout 206.5 pounds.
Thank you.

Depends on which aftermarket seat you've got. I have recaro SPG race seat for my S4 right now and I have custom make bracket. However, I also have a orginal recaro seat bracket for sell right now. And the airbag light will comes on if you remove the stock seat.

I'm in the same boat. I've got a set of Recaros from a Jetta GLi and need to get a Recaro brackets. Someone last year mentioned about putting a 5ohm resistor and that would turn off the light-- I have not tried this yet...I'm worried I'll kickoff all the airbags or something stupid.

I found a wrecked 2000 A4 with sport seats, I am hoping to get to the salvage yard that has it. Then I am hoping that the plug is similar to the S4. If so, I may try to make a plug from the A4 harness and hopefully that will keep the light off.

Once I get around to it all and make it work I'll definately post the info.

I've got Sparco Evo seats. Sparco sells a bracket to mount to a non-power seat Audi (e.g., A4 w/o power seats), which I use and had a shop weld the proper attachment on.

BTW, my stock S4 seats were 65lbs each.

Yes, I have an airbag warning light on. Like Shortbus says below, you should be able to put a resistor in there, but I haven't tried.

Thanks for the info all, I will check and see what the S4 group has to say.
