Okay, So I just attempted to do this mod and was unable to. Firstly, the underside of my driver seat looks different. This is probably because I don't have power seats. There are 3 plugs that are in a line, right next to each other. It appears that the middle plug is the "white with yellow" plug.

So for whatever reason I couldn't figure out how to disconnect it. It appears to be a different style plug than the one that is pictured above. So now I'm stuck, and am not sure what to do.

Should I just unbolt the seat and go about it that way? Or try and figure how to unplug it without taking the seat off?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Great info! This HAS BEEN DRIVING ME BONKERZ!! I'll agree with others that say, "I don't need a chime to remind me to buckle up."

I'll will be taking care of this either when my butt is out of my computer chair or in the morning, whichever comes first, lol!

Those pluges that are three in a line are not it. It is more toward the middle of the seat. It would be much easier to see if you unbolted the seat and tilted it back. Very easy to do. Should take you 10 min or so. Goodluck.

What's this method then ? I searched the site but didnt find anything. If this works then I'd rather do this than unplug cables

Cheers

I did the mod for my seatbelt chime this weekend and sweet silence is all I hear now. Unbolting the seat helped but after doing in it isn't 'neccessary', just easier to see the clip. It should be easy to see and unclip if you push the driver seat all the way back and peek under there. It's the only white one under there and if you give it a squeeze it should come out.

Hey So you're saying if I Push my Drivers Seat all the way back, that the White Clip is on the backside? So then I should be able to find it much easier??

but if the seat is pushed back all the way isn't it hard to get under/look under the seat??

Push the seat all the way back and look from the front, silly Manny.

Hahahahaa....... Okay. So I'll look through the front with the seat pushed all the way back. And I should find the seatbelt clip towards the back of the seat, right??

It's more toward the front I think but should be easy to get to nevertheless. I can take a picture tonight if you'd like.
