Congratulations, I have been meaning to find out how to shut mine up & you have done it without even trying. 53 years I got by without a stupid warning & now it makes it doubly hard to put the bloody thing in (it's a bad enough fit already) with its alarmist flashing etc.
When I first got my '89 240 wagon, I disconnected one of the little boxes near the steering column to get rid of the annoying seat belt alarm... I always use the belt, but it just bothered me. Unfortunately, I also lost the "lights on" alarm at the same time, but I considered it a fair trade! As I recall, I removed the baffle under the dash on the drivers side, then got the seat belt alarm going so I could find out which "box" it was, and disconnected it..
In retrospect, I think there's a connector at the seatbelt catch that can be undone, and that might eliminate the noise, although I've never tried....
