    I really just want to stop that aweful dinging when my seat belt is not fastened! So, I am looking for the seat belt clips to trick the truck into thinking that I am wearing my seatbelt, b/c I refuse to wear it and hate it. Any suggestions or solutions... please help
    Thanks
    Bill

    1) Turn the Car 'ON', but do not start the engine (Leave your foot off the brake). Cycle your trip reset knob until it reads ODO. Turn the ignition back off. Wait a couple of seconds.
    2) Make sure seat belt is not fastened
    3) Turn the ignition back on, do not start the car (Leave you foot off the break) As soon as you see everything light up, press and hold the trip reset knob and do a long 12 second count.
    4) Keep your finger on the trip reset knob. Fasten your seat belt, as soon as you fasten your seat belt, you should see the ODO display go from XXXX miles to "b-on". At that time take your finger off the trip reset knob and press it again. It should cycle to "b-off". You should be all set and turn the ignition off and unfasten your seat belt.

    If you disconnect the battery for any reason, you will have to repeat the procedure again.

    Thank everyone for the advice especially SC4333. Seat belts suck!
