    Hi again,
    Sorry for the late reply, I've been researching into instrument displays and there is a fault that happens with age where the solder cracks on the circuit board. I've read that flexing the board and holding it in position with tape can solve this issue but dont flex it too much or you may make it worse! Could be the reson that you found tape on the board?!? As far as the Air bag issue goes, I wouls agree with NickPicks, try and clear the fault codes via VAG, but you could just remove the bulb for the MOT but PLEASE DO get it sorted asap after, cheers mate!

    Don't remove the bulb for the MOT. It will not fail on the airbags.
    Duct tape is like The Force. It has a Light Side and a Dark Side and it holds the universe together.

    The air bag light is coming into the MOT early next year, at the moment you will only get an advisory for it, but it needs fixing asap for your own safety.
