Default Airbag warning lamp on after window tints

Hi, I've just had the rear windows tinted on my 2004 (54) 1.9 TDI Avant Sport. Along the way driving home the air bag warning lamp came on and has stuck on since. Does anyone know what could have caused this? Or if it's a fault or loose connection at all. I'm reluctant to go to a dealer unless absolutely necessary.It may be a coincidence that the warning lamp has come just after the windows where tinted, it just seems strange that it would be so randam. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

My airbag light came on after I moved my seats around while vacumming and then drove and hit a bump and bam there it went. You can supposedly get a vag-com and reset it yourself. Some people said autozone could but I have my doubts.

i doubt autozone has a vag-com. He must've bumped or unplugged something and had the ignition turned on, and caused the light to pop on. If you cant find someone with a vag-com, youll probably have to pay someone to turn it off.

They couldve yanked the airbag.... I'd check if it's still there

check the connections under the seat. something could've gotten loose. you'll also need to find someone with a vag-com to clear the code.
