There are no other solutions?
I believe the driver side airbag will fire so long as all the other restraint devices are in place (i.e. belt receptacle). I *think* this is the case because... think about it... the airbag mat is a known failure point for MANY BMW lines and if failure meant ALL airbags were non-functional, you'd hear about that being the case. But, personally, I have not heard that. Of course, the passenger airbag isn't going to fire, though. Not sure about the passenger knee and curtain airbags, though...
