Do you do anything to safe guard against the airbag going off or ignore it as unnecessary?

I didn't realise there were airbags in the doors, but now you mention it, I just disconnected them. I have not had a problem, and I didn't disconnect the battery, although I was told I will have to disconnect it to replace the subwoofers under the seats. As you see I took the passenger door card off completely, but I didn't disconnect the wiring when I got to the drivers door, I just supported the removed panel, replaced the speaker, and refitted the door panel. So it can be done without disconnecting the wiring if you are fully prepared.
