Is a resistor "directional" or just the color code spripes painted on it.
I hope NOT to look like a idiot at Radio Shack.
Not directional.

You could use three 1/2 W 10 ohm resistors in parallel to make 3.3 ohms.

Then again, you can order almost anything from Mouser Electronics.
Here's some 1W and 2W 3 ohm power resistors.

With respect to the resistor to trick the airbag sensor, I used the following: NTE Electronics, part# F2W3D3. Also running Recaro SRDs (black w/ red stitching) from Speedware with the lower brackets and Recaro sliders. Personally, I really liked the drop in seating position due to longer frame, but may not work for everyone. Installation was a bit of a pain, but well worth the effort. As for the seats, they're incredibly comfortable and provide incredible grip - have been running them for a couple years now and they're wearing very well.

Thanks. The matching is my favorite part of the seats.
