Question type: General
I need a booster cushion on the front passenger seat, When I use it, the passenger airbag light by the rear view mirror shows OFF. What can I do to enable airbag and still use the booster cushion. When I take it away the light shows ON.

Are you sure the airbags are safe for the child (I assume)? Read your owners manual.
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT A CHILD. I AM TALKING ABOUT AN ADDITIONAL FOAM CUSHION FOR AN ADULT TO SIT ON AS ADDED COMFORT. WHEN I USE IT, THE AIRBAG LIGHT SHOWS OFF. HOW CAN I STILL HAVE THE AIRBAG ON?
The cushion is not covering enough area of the seat sensor to detect your body. There's nothing that we can recommend because it's a safety feature.
