I have a 2010 mk6 gti. I recently replaced my seat belt due to my regular one was very messed up and ripped. I got the replacement belt from a junkyard and pulled it from another gti. I was wondering if there is a way to reset the airbag so it no longer causes a light on the dash. Anything will help.

I haven't had to do this repair before but I'm guessing you'll need VCDS or something like OBDEleven to reset the system or perform any SRS basic settings.

As long as the unit in the seatbelt is not damaged or defective (side note, generally a BAD idea to buy used safety equipment. You have no idea the life that belt had and you won't find out until you have to use it) then as mentioned you will need to use VCDS to most likely access the module and code the replacement belt. Never done it and only thing I can find quickly is a Ross-tech page for the MK7.
