Cancelling Airbag Light

I replaced my stock seats with aftermarket seats without thorax airbags and the airbag light went on. I went to the dealer today for my one-year service and asked them to turn off the light. They said the light could not be turned off. Does anyone know if that is correct? I've seen other posts that suggested the light could be turned off.

If the dealer is correct, is there some way of fooling the car into thinking the airbags are still there?

997-1 seats and airbags are newer/better/different than the older cars.

When you took out the factory seats you also took out the weight recognition sensors and the thorax airbag - so I see how that would cause a fault that can't be cleared.
