2016 Fiesta ST Aftermarket Seat Install with Airbag Sensor Bypass

ATTEMPT AT YOUR OWN RISK (read description)

Timestamp for front seat Airbag Sensor Bypass: 5:16 - 13:37 (note there may be easier ways to do this I was just following what has been proven online)

This is a video documenting the process I followed to install my new bucket seat for my Fiesta ST. I followed a forum post guide online to install the new seat and bypass the OEM front seat airbag sensor (please advise the safety risk in doing this).

A reddit user in the Fiesta ST subreddit (/u/kevinatfms) made a good point that there are HPDE organizations that do not allow fixed back bucket seats with an OEM 3 point seat belt. I know that running this current config is not ideal and plan to address this in the future. Please check with the HPDE groups you run with and comply with their safety rules.
