Gen. 1 airbags are dangerous, in my old '91 I disconnected the power to the airbag, and simply pulled the bulb out of the dash for it. I had a front end collision in that car, and I am very grateful that I had it disconnected, I've heard a lot of stories about those old airbags breaking noses, removing thumbs, and all kinds of horror.

There is a fuseable link that I disconnected, it was several years ago, so I would have to look it back up in my service manual. Also, that was a '91, the wiring should be the same, but I can't be 100% sure. I'll post what I can get out of my manual here in a little while.

Alright, according to my '91 service manual, it is a 16ga fuseable link, yellow, that feeds power to the airbag system. Also you have to disconnect the backup power supply for the bag, that is a blue box that is a little larger than a deck of cards and it is mounted on the steel frame for the dash, about behind the HVAC controls/radio. After that, your airbag light should just stay lit, and then just pull the bulb from the back of the instrument cluster, and you should be safer!
