Replaced seats, how to trick airbag DTC

Both of my front seats were replaced with seats that do not have airbags. I now have following codes:
B0014 OD Driver seat side air bag deployment loop
B0021 OD Passenger seat side air bag deployment loop
B0079 04 Driver seat position sensor circuit open
U0170 00 Lost communication with passenger presence module

Pulling fuses or relays don't solve anything. I am looking for a way to close the loops or trick the program. Honestly, the idiot lights don't bother me whatsoever. However, somehow one or all of these DTCs causes the car to turn on the hazard lights and call Onstar Emergency at higher speeds. I disconnected the onstar cables going in and out, so the call doesn't go through, but the voice comes over the speaker system stating that it is trying and it rings, as it attempts to complete the call. Additionally, the only way to turn the flashers off is to turn the car off.

Surely someone else has replaced the seats and figured out how to bypass all of this.

Thanks
