I am about to install a after market wheel on my ek and have a fair good knowledge on how to put it on and everything, but the question I have is, since my airbag on my drivers side will be disabled, will the passenger bag be disabled 2?

Umm... don't know...? Isn't the air bag control module with the passenger side airbag? I really don't know bro. My best guess is that the passenger side would still work.

No it will not work. The SRS module will not detect the missing air bag and will store a DTC and the SRS light will turn on, and that keeps both air bags from inflating in case of an accident.
