Rear Seat Removal Advice - Model X 2020

I have a 5 seat 2020 (legacy) Model X with a bed / kitchen setup.

I'd like to remove the rear bench (3 seats) to maximize space for my camping conversion setup. Does anyone know how to successfully do this, or point me in the right direction?

I've seen a couple videos on how to do it but unclear if they're legacy models and most of the videos are removing the 2 middle seats on a 6 or 7 seat configuration.

I need to be able to successfully install software updates and not have any sensor warnings / issues firing off constantly. Can't keep the real airbags attached either because I don't want them exploding in an accident.

Here's a link to resistors that might be able to trick the airbag - would that be enough?

I'd honestly rather have somebody else experienced do it for me - I'm in Cincinnati OH if anyone knows somebody within 100 miles who may be able to help.

Thoughts?

2020 Model X Long Range + Seat Removal Advice

I have a 5 seat 2020 (legacy) Model X with a bed / kitchen setup.

Another non-negotiable is being able to successfully install software updates and not have any sensor warnings / issues firing off constantly. Cant keep the real airbags attached either because i dont want them exploding in an accident.

I've also heard that Tesla's warranty is compromised if you take the seats out. I'm a little bit less worried about that because I could always reinstall before taking it to a service center after any major issues.
