Engine Rebuild - Air Bag Question

I'm in the process of pulling the engine on an '96 Honda EX 4-door. The repair manual indicates that I need to disable the airbags as part of the procedure. It states that I need to locate put a "short plug" on some wires. I can locate what looks like one of the wire for the driver-side airbag in a compartment on the steering wheel, but can't locate the short plug. I can't locate anything resembling the wire or a short plug behind the glove box on the passenger side.

Questions:

Is it really necessary to disable the airbags? If so, then can anyone provide the correct procedure for an '96 Honda EX 4-door.

Thanks.

Dang! 60 views and not a single reply. Does anyone understand how the airbag circuit works and if it needs to be disabled when removing an engine?
