Default Air bag disposal?

hi guys as the title suggests how do I go about getting rid of un deployed air bags. I have six side curtain bags and will have 4 more soon.
Apart from blowing them up how do you dispose of them?

Put them under bed and detonate them while missus is sleeping at 2AM in the morning.

Rig them up inside an old car and put some item of value or cash visible in back seat, with a trip wire to airbags. Park car in casino basement and wait for some junky or career thief to break in and steal said item. That will be one item he wished he didnt try to steal.

Blow the bastards up then toss the remains in an e-waste bin.

Wreckers won't touch them as they have no idea about the car they came from.

its illegal to sell or refit to another car. the neighbours cracked it last time i let 1 off so to set another 6 off would be police action for sure. wreckers wont touch them or give any sort of info for disposal. who wants them for a bit fun pick up north brissie.
