    I've had two women ride in my car on dates and both have asked; "so what's wrong with your airbag?" Within seconds of getting in my very new car.

    I agree that the light should NOT be orange (warning color). I put a piece of black electrical tape over the light withOUT removing the dash, and it made everything all better.

    I am not disassembling that dashboard. LOL.

    Nice work Issy. For me, i'll just leave it on and get use to it I guess. My luck i'll try to remove the dash and break the thing in two. lol

    Honestly, it isn't as difficult as it looks.

    I just got a certified pre-owned 2015 Prius C. My passenger light always remains on as well. In the Toyota supplied manual on page 50 it says this light is supposed to go out after a few seconds after the hybrid system is on. If the light does not shut off, there may be a malfunction and it should be checked by a Toyota dealer.

    My Air Bag On/Off lights area always illuminated. "On" if a passenger is in the seat, "Off", if not.

    Yeah...it sounds like Toy may have updated that for the 2015 and up versions of the C. From what I can tell with my 2014...the light stays lit, either "ON" when air bag functional or "OFF" when not in use.
