Need to reset my airbag light any recomendations for a cheap hand held reader that can do this

I've tried a mates cheap (£70) one, they don't work on our cars unfortunately.
3.0 Tdi Q A4 Avant S-Line Dolphin Grey
RNS-E retrofitted
Buy a vcds cable, they are pricey, the software is upgradeable free of charge and they are a worthwhile investment. If interested in buying
user Nigel (NHN) on here supplies.
I bought a cheap one on eBay that just reads and clears codes that works. Obviously I wish I had the full VCDS but it cleared my airbag light. It only came on when I moved the seat all the way back to clean the car. The connection under the seat had opened slightly.
If you just want to read and erase fault codes, then one of the best out there for the price is this one;
Professional Fault Code Reader for Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda (1996-2009)
We have one at work that we used before I got the VCDS.
Suzuki GSX-R 750 K5 06 plate
A4 S-Line. Mods so far; Cruise, DIS, Mk2 RNS-e, Audi 6 CD changer, XcarLink with self manufactured permanent ipod dock, B8 MFSW, Dectane Dayline Headlights with independantly switched DRL's, RS4 Rear ARB, De-badged, RS4 pedals, HIDS, RS4 front grille and RS4 style fog surrounds, LCR splitter in Satin Black, Rear Park Assist, LED gearknob, Red footwell lighting.

Hi lewie. This is the one I use U281 Can-bus Obd2 Code Scanner Vw Audi Seat Skoda Can [u281] - £23.24 : Auto Parts Lights
It will scan and erase but that's about it. Handy though. I have a 140 2006 avant.
lewie thanked for this post
Ok bought a VS450 from the bay - perfect reset the airbag light, anyone in SE Kent need it let me know.
Not sure what else it can do, manual says about resetting service light etc
