Cut out the connector and solder the pretensioner wires under the
front (usually drivers) seat?

I've not even looked at it yet, but the connections under the seats
would be my first port of call
I was told (yeah I know) that the light wouldn't go out when I fixed the
problem, it would need resetting, is that right ?

It reset itself after the fix on my dad's 1995 TD. It might have taken
a certain number of starts, but I don't think so.

Mum never had the 2000 HDi long enough for the airbag light problem to
surface so my experience isn't direct.

I'm sure I test started the 1998 1.9D we have before refitting the
airbag after a heater matrix change and it made the light come on, but
went off after the airbag was fitted again.

Suck it and see. I'm not sure the electromagics on this generation of
Peugeot were very sophisticated. I'd try chatting up a local garage for
a quick blast of their code reader if it doesn't reset itself.

FWIW mother's saab didn't need reset after a broken wire under the seat,
and neither does my Mazda.

Good luck!
