They are soldered led not bulbs and you can keep your abs with no airbags

How do I do that? Because I pulled the air bag module, and now I've got an "ABS INOP" light.

That says it, you pull the airbags and maybe the abs won't work? I had the abs inop light on for so long like I said, it didn't change anything.

Screw it, ditch all that stuff, at this point does it matter?

The led's can be unsoldered and a regular diode soldered back in it's place and the dash should still work right, no reason a light emmitting diode will do anything any different then a regular diode will.

I really think I am gunna ditch it all. I wanted to keep all the plugs and all that in place so I could reinstall everything, but Im about 15 minutes from sayin forget it.

The car still sees a lot of street use, but the air bags and ABS being gone dont bother me. For the first 5 years I drove, I didnt have either of those.
