Hi I have little option but to remove the top half of my dash to get to the
charcoal filter stepper motor on top of the pollen filter box.

am I ok to just unplug the airbag? (which is attached to the top dash)

And if so will I be ok plugging it back in when i put it all back together again?

thanks.
 
Disconnect the battery and wait around 15mins or so for any remaining current to discharge. NEVER do it with the battery connected.
 
^ This. If you don't do this, or at least, don't put the key in the ignition, the SRS lamp will illuminate and you'll need star to turn it off. MOT failure with it lit up.
 
Thanks guys.

Will do. :0)
