It's the side air bag! On our honda's once you remove the clip your SRS light will come on. You have to take it to honda to reset it, unless you can find another way. In the future, if anyone removes an Airbag clip for mods and then reconnects them, make sure your battery is disconnected so the computer does not register the removal of it. If it's there when you disconnect the battery and it's there when you reconnect the battery your SRS light will be off. But in your case, you are permanetly removing the seats, Honda is the only one that can address that issue. Not sure if it works though, because if they reset it, I think your computer is still gonna look for side air bags.

no i dont have side airbags but i read the owners manual and the front seatbelts ARE part of the SRS system..what i disconected was a sensor that when theres an accident that sensor will pic up the speed of ur body moving forward or what ever at the point of impact and it also decides if the airbags have to be deployed...or someshit like that..i have to bring it back to honda to reset it..i hope they dont rip me a new @sshole..lol ill keep u guys posted
well its 85 ****ing dollars to reset the SRS light...WTF man
anyone had this problem when installing aftermarket seats besides me? because in reality when i change my strearing wheel to an aftermarket one i wont have an airbag on the stearing wheel..wich means that the light will stay on NO MATTER WHAT right???
Is this a show car or a drag car? Because if its just ur every day car, the second u get in a head on collision ur gonna die if your going 30 or more. I have seen it happen, those steering wheels are not the softest things in the world when ur head smack into them. IMO its stupid to replace the Steering wheel. Anywho if u wanna replace it u might as well just wait till u do it, then get the srs light reset, or else u will be going back again.
