some cars have sensors in the seats... to see if anyone is sitting there in order to turn on. i don't know if our g's have it or not. but it could be why u didn't feel anything.

^ i could be wrong, but i think the seat-occupancy sensor is for air-bag purposes only...and i'm not sure if the G has those.

my coupe definitely does. i have a big orange light showing me the passenger side airbag is off... unless it's triggered by the seat-belt.

that's the seatbelt triggering it, depending on how it's oriented.
