A4 B7 seatbelt warning noise
Help guys, the seatbelt warning sound in my girlfriend's car is driving her crazy. I've done some research and it sounds like my only option is to buy a VAG. Has anyone tried to disable the actual speaker from within the dash where the sound emits from???

Bzzzzz.... The B7 seatbelt warning is much more annoying than you think. It chimes even after you put your seatbelt on and continues. And then if anyone moves weight around in the passenger seat it starts up yet again! I "disabled" mine even though I NEVER go without wearing it or let anyone not wear theirs. Even after disabling it, it's not totally disabled it still beeps 2 or 3 times at startup, but its so much less annoying.
Vag is your only option. Please don't try to hack into your instrument cluster to disable it. Just go buy a vag or better yet...

I agree. The ding is SUPER annoying and I always wear my seatbelt. The airbag detector for the passenger seat will sometimes see your briefcase as a person and will start dinging the seatbelt ding. Or my least favorite complaint is if I am sitting in my car after the end of my drive with the car still on doing some work, listening to the radio, or finishing a phone conversation and take off my seatbelt, the dinging goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on.... Completely annoying. Thanks for posting this question.

I just sucks if you want to just sit in the garage with the car on but don't need your seatbelt on. It dings non stop. If you vag it it just dings for the first few seconds the car is on. You really aren't completely disabling it, just making it the way the B5 was.
