On most circa 80's airbags it's not the propellant but the bag that degrades.

They can be disconnected via the SRS system.
My 1988 300CE that I bought new had the SRS light come on about 15 years ago.
Dealer asked me if I cared about having an airbag and my response was no.
Dealer disconnected.

Currently have an period AMG/Atiwe steering wheel installed that was designed without an airbag.
I'm old, grew up with cars that had no airbags, seatbelts, padded dashes, etc and made it safely to now !
