Default can i turn off the no-seatbelt beeping?

ahhhh! it's driving me nuts when i'm sitting there parked, waiting for my girlfriend to get off the ferry, and i'm hearing six beeps every 30 seconds. can I turn this off? please help!

other than that, though, the car is DOPE! (other than the swirl marks from the dealer's 'prep' though.. they're helping to get that resolved, i'll keep you posted)

Default Yeah lots of dealers wash the cars pretty poorly...

If what you meant is that they put swirls in your paint from their wash after service. Dirty rags have sediments in them that can be abrasive to your paint. I've heard people comment on what some use not being in the best interest of the finish on the car.

Default I was suprised to find out after I preped the car myself....

that the dealer basically foots the bill on a $100+ detail at a local shop. I was extemely suprised they didnt do it theirself.

Default Thank you. Absolutely annoying.

I posted the same thing earlier in the month and unfortunately no one had any advice other than to wear my seatbelt. Enough about wearing my seatbelt, we all do. What we're all talking about is waiting in the car with the engine running (driver alone or just passenger). Dealer says it can't be deactivated, someone please prove them wrong.

Default That's a GOOD thing...

Detail shops normally do a <b>much</b> better job than anyone else as detailing is what they do; at most dealers the 18 year-old lot "**** man" gets a bucket and a sponge after they move the cars around that morning...

I don't have the beeping. Maybe the earlier production cars don't have it?
