    Rear seat occupancy sensor bypass. Is it possible?

    Folks,

    I have the dreaded permanent airbag light on my 03 745Li. I took it to the dealer since they sent me a letter stating that they were extending the warranty for the front passenger occupancy sensor. It turns out the issue was actually the drivers seat and the left rear seat and was not eligible for warranty replacement. In lieu of spending 12 gajillion dollars at the dealer I ordered two bypass off eBay. I successfully installed the one for the drivers seat but for the life of me I cannot find the same module for the rear. I have searched high and low online and most repairs are for the front seats. So, does the rear seat use the same module that I can bypass or is it a totally different system? If it is the same, where in the world is it located? Thanks in advance for your help.
