I want to tackle the passenger seat next weekend but I'm not so sure about the airbag sensor in the seat I might just swap it over from the yaris seat it is just a simple weight that turns the airbag on.

The Yaris seats use four sensors on the passenger seat for occupancy detection. The sensors are load cells that connect the upper part of the seat to the lower frame, thus allowing them to weigh the upper seat as well as whatever is on it. If you can transfer the load cells over, you will need to have someone with a Toyota TechStream Tool recalibrate the system for the difference in upper seat weight (unless the VW seats are close to the same weight).
