During the last few days, the car has been at the bodyshop several times due to the airbag light constantly turning on. It ended up costing me a little over $550 in parts and labour cost, as they had to replace the drivers' seat belt tensioner, airbag control module and wiring between these two.

Then, at least, I managed to do something myself:

I replaced the current license plate lights with complete LED inserts:

The LED insert:

Comparison of new LED insert vs. old stock bulb:

I also bought a new cabin air filter:

Removed the old one, and nearly threw up:

Old filter vs. new filter:
