X3 and Baby Seats (and disabling air bags)

[PeterNYC]

Hello all...

It's been a while since I've posted, but we're still loving our X3, and it's about to become a family wagon. My wife is due in about 3 weeks with our first child, and the X3 will be his main ride.

So, I'm hoping there are some fathers out there who can answer a few questions about the baby seat:

-Where did you place it? (Left, center or right hand side?): We have a 75 pound Labrador and she needs some space as well. She may be able to ride in the very back if placing the seat in the center is highly recommended.

-Did you disable to rear airbags? If so, on both sides? And how does one go about doing this??

Any other tips you guys have would be great.

Happy motoring....
