Seatbelt warning sound....can it be turned off

I often put my laptop and other items on the passenger seat which makes the seatbelt warning go off.

I know I could simply put the seatbelt in when carrying things on the seat but is there a way of simply turning off the audible alarm?

Yes.........when you first get in, start her up and very quickly put the seatbelt in and out the holder, I think its 8 or 10 times.........that shuts it up for good L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

I agree people are daft enough for things like this and buy it on eBay,

Might aswell cash in on them and do it for the FL2 and D3 on a separate adverts to get double money in for the sites.

You could also sell 'Free advice and friendly banter' for £5.00 and post them a forum flyer to guide them here

EDIT: Just looked the guys already selling them for the other cars, I wonder what reply i would get if i asked if they do one for a Defender
