Does the clip stay engaged? Otherwise, i think I would disconnect the airbag to Ensure it doesn’t misfire, then get a new unit.

I might be missing something. Bur the broken clip on the connector looks like it's just there to secure the connectors together. Does the connector feel secure from just the spring tension of the contacts? You could ty-rap it on if your worried about it coming loose.

The connector feels secure. I am not to sure how to remove that tab.my fear is I hope that doesn’t make the air bag deploy. My only option is put it back together and see what happens it or I can try to see what I can do . I sure as hell do not what to take it to the dealership.

The battery should be disconnected, that’s step 1. Wait 10min then disconnect the the airbags

My issue is I just do not know how to remove that broken tab . Should I just order that new harness? Or should I force it out ? Thank you
If the little locks on the tabs broke just pull up, if you pull up and there’s still resistance than it’s still locked in. The way they normally work is you squeeze in and pull up if my memory serves me right. So if you have a pick tool get on both sides of the remaining broken white piece on the tab. Get the pick push the ends in and lift.

Edit:
If that doesn’t work. Leave it as is dont mess with it anymore, buy the harness see if it has the airbag connectors, once that’s been verified. Then go to town on the clip to unplug it, but not break the connection on the airbag or else that’s a hefty price
