Default Seat Belt Warning

Anybody know of a way to disable the seat belt warning for both the driver and passenger? Even though it turns off after a while I feel like shooting the car while it's activated. Why don't modern cars allow you to choose how this warning sounds if at all.

Turning off seat belt buzzer:

1) Set the LCD on the combination meter to the ODO display using the ODO/TRIP button.

2) Turn IG off. Unbuckle both front seat belts.

3) With foot off brake, press Start button twice to activate electronics. Within six seconds, press and hold the ODO/TRIP button. Wait ten seconds, and while still holding the button, buckle the driver’s seat belt.

4) The LCD displays "b-oFF". Release the button. The buzzer can be switched between "b-on" or "b-oFF" each time the ODO/TRIP button is pressed.

5) The display reverts back to normal if the button is not pressed for ten seconds, completing the process.

Repeat 2) to 5) for the passenger seat belt buzzer.

Awesome!!!!! Thank you so much. I did the steps and it worked. You only have to do it once though for both the driver and passenger. Now I don't have to shoot my dash. Thanks again!
