They cut the wires too? If that's the case and you want to try it yourself... you need to get the OEM plug and wires and properly crimp and heat shrink that to the remaining wires. The OEM plug is important as the connector on the airbag has a metal bridge across the terminals to prevent a static discharge from setting it off when it is unplugged, and the connector has to push back that bridge.

And the system is heavily monitored for resistance across the whole circuit, so a proper crimp job is important as well. You would need the correct size non-insulated crimps and the proper crimpers for that style crimps, and some good heat shrink to fully insulate the crimps. You can get the crimpers from harbor freight, radio shack, etc. for less than $20, and the plug/wires/crimps/heatshrink from the dealer.
