The seatbelt beep driving me nuts!!

Any updates on this project?

All finished. That was a job. It looks great now, and I'm kinda forgetting about all the hours and cussin' that went into the project.

GREAT thanks! I am going to yank the seat and give the gear seat lowering stop a quick grind. I tried the leg replacement using 1 1/4" tubing AND the Misch brackets, that did not work for me. The Misch brackets are such heavy steel and are one piece for each side it gave a huge angle front to back for the seat and actually RAISED the overall height of the seat! i think with JUST a little back angle, my knee will be out of the dash and I am good to go!

I got a decent back angle out of just chopping the back legs. The seat is visibly lower than the passenger seat now. It went back together so smoothly that I don't think anyone would look at it and realize that it had even been altered. This did the job for me, although it would have been even better if I could have dropped the front an inch too.

A couple of pics of the seats, and one shot of the seat base that I cut off and rewelded with a 1
& 1/4" drop.

I've got a 2022 JT and a Tazer. The Tazer let me turn off the belt chime in my 2020 JL but not the JT. The on off buckle unbuckle trick doesn't work either. Has it been made untouchable now?

The 4X seatbelt toggling worked fine to turn off seatbelt chime on my 2020 JT.

Millions of us survived the fact that car seats were not around when we grew up. Seat belts were installed in the front seats of new vehicles and even those were not mandated back then. There were fewer cars on the road and less of a chance for bad things to happen. Seatbelts and helmets should be options in my opinion. Would I wear one? It depends on the circumstance. But it should not be a Gov. mandate. Car seats are another story. They do save kids from adult mistakes.

I always wear mine, but yeah I grew up riding in a bench seat mounted in the bed of my dad's S10. When I'm wheeling I have it on but I put the chest part behind me because I lean a lot when I look around. I'm sure it was mentioned already but why not just buckle it behind you? I keep my rear seatbelts buckled 24/7 so they don't flap in the wind, and you really don't even notice sitting on it.

Our 22 is quiet now after doing the 3 buckle / unbuckle sequence...

1. Sit in car with everything off and buckle seatbelt.
2. Press ignition button until you get to RUN position.
3. Wait for display console seatbelt icon to go off.
4. Unbuckle and buckle 3 times, ending with it buckled again.
5. Press ignition button until you get to OFF.

Absolutley love my gladiator but the only thing that drives me insane is the dam seat belt beep screaming at me. I don't mind wearing my seat belt but just a 5 min drive to the store or down a dirt road ...come on? And on top of that it doesn't stop like most past cars Iv had after 3-4 beeps. It keeps going and going and going.....is there any fix for this? Or setting ? Does it drive you guys nuts to?

On the plus side not 2earing your seat belt deactivates your start stop feature.

My Volkswagen is a 1973, and it has seatbelts in the front and the back. That had to be a long time ago when cars didn't have seatbelts in the back. They are lap belts in back, but they are there, and they are factory. I think they had rear seatbelts at least back to the early '60s.
I grew up mostly in the '90s, and I remember most of my very young life, we didn't really wear the rear seatbelts though. But would I do that now? No way. We used to ride in the bed of pickups all the time too. But I think we're smarter now.

JScan can do it

66 impala had an option for rear seat belts. Most didn't get that option.

Got it turned off using Tazer in my 2020 JT.
