'99+ has the squib in the front seatbelts, not just 01/02. The squib is a secondary locking mechanism, the mechanical lock found on the 96-98 belts is still present, so even if the squib fails, it will match the performance of the previous belt system (still has inertial lock even without the pre-tensioner).
