Default minor annoyance - yellow airbag light

Enjoying my Monsoon Gray S3 since just before Xmas.
A minor annoyance is the bright yellow "passenger air bag" light.
For those that agree; has anyone been bothered enough to come up with a cover/fix that doesn't look worse than the light itself? I mean...a fix other than placing a supermodel in the passenger seat.

I'm used to it now. Still hate it. I put something the passenger seat which caused the light to go out, or change to read with another message not sure. Either way the interior was much more pleasant with the light off than with it on.

On some of my older cars I put a Chiquita banana sticker over the CEL - that might work here lol

Sounds like the best and easiest solution. Easily removed when necessary.

I think you CLEARLY answered your own question… Supermodel.

WAY better than a banana sticker.

That seems perfectly sufficient to me...
