Airbag sensors
 
The previous owner of my Jimmy got in some kind of tangle, messed up the front end. He replaced the radiator support, grill, headlights, and hood with some S-10 parts. Since the passenger side fender is also damaged but he decided not to replace it, he had to "modify" (read: bend and cut) the radiator support a little in order to get it to bolt in and as a result nothing on the front end fits quite right. It's difficult to explain - just believe me that the whole shebang needs to be replaced by someone with a little more pride in his work. I'm dreading the day one of my headlights goes out because I'm going to need to take off the grill and completely remove the S-10 headlight assembly just to replace a bulb. Anyway...

I'm thinking of possibly doing the 98+ conversion while I'm replacing all that. But whether or not I do, I've got this problem where the vehicle currently does not have any airbag sensors on the radiator support - the connectors are just dangling there; and of course the AIRBAG light in the IC is just shining away. Now in places where I've seen descriptions of the 98+ conversion job, some of them stress the importance if you use a junkyard radiator support that you remove the airbag sensors on the donor support and replace them with the ones from your original vehicle. I can't do that obviously, because I just don't have the original sensors. So my question: can I just get any -97 Jimmy/Blazer/S-10 sensors from the junkyard and use them? Or is there another place that sells replacements? Don't seem to be carried by the dealer anymore, and just removing the fuse so I don't have to look at the light anymore isn't my kind of solution.
