Depending on year, that sensor is either not there ('96-'98), only used for the seatbelt warning light ('99-'00) or integrated into the SRS system ('01-'02).
Since you have a 2000, just leave it unplugged. Your passenger airbag will work normally. The SRS system only uses two forward sensors and controls the two airbags and two front seatbelt pre-tensioners. It does not use seatbelt information or occupancy information.
If you short the sensor wires (it is simply a switch-type sensor), you will have the flashing seatbelt warning light on the dash unless the seatbelt is plugged in.
