Angry Airbag light needs to go!

So I slammed into a brick wall with my stock jeep. Very depressing day... since then I fixed everything and built my jeep up but the airbag light likes to haunt me. Its really annoying. I ripped the old bags out and replaced them but don't intend to fully arm them. I just want the light to go away!! Any ideas? Can I use a computer device to get rid of the light or do I just literally rip the bulb from the dash? If so, any pics or advise? Do I get rid of the old module or keep it for good old memories....

Did you replace the clock spring when you put new airbags in it? A busted clock spring will cause that

No cause I just want to have the replacements sitting there in case I might want to actually arm them in the future. But for now I just want that light to go away. If i replace the clock spring but don't arm the module do you think the light will go off?
