Not sure if anyone has been looking for a Hub adapter with the Airbag defeater like I have, but I have found a source for them.

Most of the Mazda shops carried Mazda Speed hubs that did the job, but when Mazda took them over, the supply in the states dried up. Mazda Speed will no longer import them into the US and dealers like Corksports had run out months ago.

I found a place that can get them for $124.95. Link below for you to contact him. Guy I talked to was named Tom. He said that if I knew anyone else that wanted one to have them contact him before monday so they can go on the same order to get them faster.

Finish Line Performance

Note: You will have to call him as they are not listed on the site for the Rx-7, but they will look just like the one used on the Miata.

Hope this helps,
Dan

 

Awesome thanks! I may have to order this tomorrow!

 

what exactly is the use of this?? cant you just un-hook the wiring for the air bag??

 

?

 

Not, without getting the dummy light to come on. This tricks the ABS computer into thinking its there and you won't have to worry about the light. I think thats about right.

 

then you can just remove the light bulb. no more idiot light!

 

Yeah thats the ghetto way!
But its cheaper too!

 

nothin wrong with ghetto. :p

 

im down to get paid $125 to be ghetto...

 

Have you tried to get to the light to unplug it? Also, this has a factor plug in for the horn, so no splicing of wires. Some like to jerry rig, I prefer to spend a few bucks and never have to worry about it again.

By the way, you can defeat the light with a 3 Ohm resistor and not worry about unplugging it.

Hope this helps,

Dan
