>I prefer to start the engine before putting the seat belt on (I don't know >why > I just do) and I find the chimes annoying. Yeah, I think most everyone starts the engine first, I think it is because you have keys in hand and it is easier to put them somewhere and buckle up with free hands. >And even if one puts the seat >belt on first,ones passenger may not so the >chimes still go off. Really?!? In every car I have ever owned when you started it the chimes or buzzer or bell or whatever went off for about 7 seconds or until you belted in, I have NEVER had a car where the actual chimes were also linked to the pannenger belt. After I last posted I had the thought that if you didn't want to go to the dealer perhaps you could find the wires for the sensor in the buckle and short them out. Ryan P.S. I am glad to hear that you are not opposed to seat belts, neither am I. I just didn't want to start a flame war, PHEW!!
