the airbags should be always on. but its worth a try, just do it right down by the seat, no one would ever see it.

There's a "90 second ding"? Hmmmmm, never heard that. OH! you mean if you don't buckle your seat belt there's a ding?!? Really?!? Damn, I wonder if there's a "ding" if you are ejected at 100+ mph. Anyone?

Only if you bonk your dome on a street sign.

you don't need to be driving 100 mph to be ejected from your car and kill someone else.

Friends of mine were killed going through an intersection. Another person ran the light at a very very high rate of speed, struck my friends' vehicle near the front end of their car which caused the car to spin viloently. Only the driver was wearing a seatbelt (not a scratch) and the others were all thrown from the car (VIA THE GLASS WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD). One was thrown nearly a block from the impact zone.

Wearing a seatbelt is not just for you stay alive but to keep you from killing someone else. Something to think about.
