Why not just wear your seatbelt? It saves lives you know.

cut the seatbelt and take the metal piece and stick it inot the buckle...that way your seatbelt is techincially 'always on'.if you want to disregard the obvious safety reasons behind a seatbelt, then you wouldn't mind cutting the belt and making it useless.

That is why I have mine off. Thank god!Also, If you disconnect your battery for any reason after you disable the seatbelt beep you will have to do it again as it will reset itself to go on again.

All it does is turn off the beep. The airbag feature still seems to function normally. That's why it says "b-on" and "b-off" on the odometer.The airbag indicator on the dash still says "off" when no one is in the passenger's seat and "on" when there is someone sitting there.The only reason the airbag should go off is if you are in an accident.If it goes off for any other reason, your pretty much screwed anyways.
