So yeah guys my inspection is due by the end of this month but my srs light is on and so is my abs light my cel does come on but only after driving for a while because my speed sensor is bad but what can i do about the sr light n abs my friend suggested removing their bulbs from the cluster but i think that would be sketchy what do you guys think?

Those lights usually come on for a couple seconds when you first turn the key to start the car. So if they don't come on at all, they might notice at inspection. Why are the lights coming on? Have you looked into the root of the problem?

ABS could be a bad anti lock sensor. SRS could also be a disconnected sensor... or maybe the air bags went off at one point? Does the car have a clean title?

If the car had a aftermarket steering wheel it could also mean he never reset the SRS... its easy to do... all you need is a paperclip.
