Is there any way to turn off the beeping associated with not having your seatbelt buckled? Sometimes I wear them and sometimes I don't and would like to get rid of the warning.

Much said here in forum on this subject.

Consensus is buckle up for safety.

No way to turn them off. Some get buckle end from junkyard and put that in, or you can use any metal object that fits to fool the warning device.

I don't mean to get all preachy, but I'm amazed at the number of people who come around asking this question. If you can afford the TL, you're not poor. Which in turn means you're either reasonably smart or rather lucky (could be both).

Reasonably smart - seatbelts save lives. This is not just Ralph Nader rhetoric, this is proven, documented, scientific fact. Yes, once in a blue moon we all hear a story about the person who either survived because of no seatbelt or died because they wore it. Those are statistical blips, outlyers, anomolies, rareties. Like the occasional 85 year old man who has drank a pint of whiskey and smoked a pack of cigarettes since he was 20, and he's alive and fine. Yes, but the other 9,999 people like him died decades ago of lung cancer, heart disease, liver failure, or stroke. Wear your seatbelt.

Rather lucky - great, but don't push it. Wear your seatbelt.
