Default seat belt alarm stopper?

I'm one of the bad boys who doesn't like to wear my belt. Not having any luck finding one other than Ebay and I don't like to buy off that site. Not finding on Amazon either. I don't want to do Carista or the multi step process to disable alarm. Where do I find one without having to buy overseas?

So, you are one of those people that upon impact is ejected like a rag doll, first into the steering wheel and dash and then through the windshield, as your body somersaults wildly head-first onto the pavement to then be hit by other vehicles and dragged underneath face-down where you are unrecognizable to your death... Bad boy? No, sad boy! C'mon man...

Go to a junkyard and buy the tab that goes into the buckle. Or just shove a piece of metal into the buckle.

As a trauma surgeon, I agree.

The RX and ES had this way of turning it off through a series of directions of turning the car on and off and pressing the trip reset button. There may be a similar processfor the GS?

I think they got rid of that stuff. For example the older camrys you used to be able to do a ignition switch dance thing with the odometer reset button to turn it off, but after like 08 or so, that stopped working.

Since you don't wear your seat belt, just cut the buckle off of the existing belt and leave it plugged in all the time!

Just kidding, wear your seatbelt, dummy.

Wait, like you don't wear one at all? Or like in the neighborhood when you're really close to home?

Dude, wear a seatbelt. Save your own life, for the sake of your kids/family.

Just buckle the belt and sit on top of the belt.

Seriously though, what do you find so annoying with putting on your belt?
