Re: Airbag harness
Yikes! Not sure you'd find a complete harness anywhere but the JY. What's wrong with yours?

Re: Airbag harness
Just remove the fuse, and disconnect the connector under the steering column - then the bag can't explode on you.
Theres alot to the system, and I'm not sure exactly where it's all located at. There's sensors, a seperate battery for it, a unit that controls it, etc.
Here's the wiring diag for the SRS if it helps: http://www.austinthirdgen.org/mkport...traint_AJ3.jpg
Might help you trace down what's been cut and repair the wiring to correct it. Once that's done, before I replaced fuse and reconnected the underdash connector, I might would take the bag off the wheel (4 screws in back of wheel), disconnect the bag plug from the wheel, and grab a VOM, then reconnect the underdash connector, replace the fuse, and see if there's any voltage on the airbag connector with the VOM BEFORE I reconnected the air bag itself. Then I'd remove the fuse, disconnect the underdash connector, replace the air bag on the wheel, reconnect everything under dash and the fuse, and not lift head up from under the dash until you do - that way if it does go off, it will happem while your head is under the dash replacing the fuse, and you won't get your block knocked off.
