Airbag code

Some questions I'm wondering, about replacing my airbags.

1) Where is the front airbag sensor? I can't find it (97 V6 Camaro).
2) I have new airbags to put in, but before I do it I was wondering about the airbag code. I'm assuming that if I just install my new ones they'll pop right out since the code is still there. If I remove the airbag fuse and disconnect the battery, will that reset it, or do I need to clear the code out of the computer?
3) Can I reset the airbag sensor, or is it a one time use type of thing?

The service manual says that any time the airbag is deployed, you must change the SDM.
James, good thing we grabbed that out of your garbage Â*:P

If you are still in need of that module, I'm ditching mine fairly soon, and I'll be happy to sell it to you.

AFAIK there was also one in the front of the car, didn't you find that Craig?

Maybe the '97 is different, or maybe I'm just wrong.....

Like I said, "James good thing we grabbed that out of your garbage :P"... I have the airbags and the SDM out of James' car.

Justin, that's what I thought and also what Paul told me, that's exactly what I'm checking. Although I didn't find one, and James said he didn't find one on his car... i was wondering tho what the box-like things attached to the frame rails are...
