[s-cars] Airbag reset port?

[JC]

...rrrrmm.... sorry...  I get carried away cracking myself up.... 
[he says choking back suggestions 13-27... "invoke demons with human
sacrifice and command them to..." NO NO NO, MUST STOP..!  ]  
 
but no, AFAIK no shortcut/workarounds for the exploding gas-bag module like
there are sometimes for CEL's.    
 
seriously though, suggestions 6-8 aren't bad way to go.  
 
or 9.   
or 11.  [ NO! BAD URs-FANBOY, NO BISCUIT! ]

Why I believe I detect a note of scar-chasm.
In truth, lacking a vag-com I was wondering if there might be some other
INTELLIGENT method to reset the light which may have come on due to set
mileage being reached etc.  On my Mazda there is a dip switch behind the
dash that can be reset at 160kmi to make the CEL go out.
Thanks (I think)

"is there any way to make it go out"? hmm question sounds so familiar...
 
wait, I get it... you mean is there any way to make it go out aside from the
ACTUAL WAY TO MAKE IT GO OUT? 
 
hmmm, lesssee sure, lots of ways:
1. electrical tape on the instrument panel. (hear no evil, see no evil. been
done before.) 
1.b. apply black rustoleum spray paint to instrument panel (see option 1)
2. pull instrument panel and remove bulb. (wouldn't be the first time it's
been done.)
3. ball peen hammer to dashboard. (will take many strikes I expect but keep
at it and you'll get there.)
3.b. framing hammer. (see option 3) 
4. douse interior in gasoline, apply match, run. return next day to confirm
light no longer on.  repeat if necessary. 
5. pay professional mechanic to use Vag-type tool (strike that, that's still
the WAY TO MAKE IT GO OUT)
6. borrow Vag-Com setup from friendly wise-ass local Audi enthusiast in
return for frosty beerverages. (DITTO)
7. buy vag-com for yourself and enjoy numerous benefits (DITTO)
8. be a cheapskate and download free vag-com software version from interweb
and try to use one of the cheap chinese knock-off cables. (DITTO)
8. never start car again. post parking location of car for parts-hungry
fellow listers. 
9. train family of Norwegian rats to gnaw electrical wires, lock in interior
for extended period of time. 
10. leave lights, radio, AC fan, and any other accessories on until light
goes out. 
11. remove instrument cluster and replace with decoupage panel made from
lacquered starfish and seashells.
12. poke right eye out with sharp stick so you can only see left side of
dashboard. 
 
I could keep going for hours. perhaps other listers will have suggestions?
