go to the dealer, airbags are a scary area for dealerships, lots of potential for lawsuits and the such, so they should get you taken care of at no expense.
FYI, my 01 GTI had the light come on, I brought it in and they cleared the codes, but said if the light comes on again that they legally have to replace the airbag componentry
