Default Side Airbags

I'm was wondering if anyone knows how to disconnect the side airbags. I want to get some leather seat covers and there all non airbag compatible.
thanks
Nate

I would bet someone makes leather seat covers that are side airbag compatible. I have a Mazda with leather interior and it has side air bags. My new JK also has side air bags. I may upgrade to leather latter on and would want the air bags to work. I ordered with them to help save my butt if I am involved in an accendent. I sure wouldn't want ot disconnect them. Are the seat cover you are looking at replace the original or do they slip over the existing covers?
