I've left my headlights on twice. Nice thing to have a reminder... and why would you guys not want to wear your seatbelt?

Is the dinger under the dash where the plugin relays (or fuses) are located? I know that's where it is on other cars. Thanks.

I always wear it when driving, but sometimes sitting in a parking lot I will take it off or if I put something heavy on the seat, it thinks there is a person therer

I wanted to recirculate this thread to see if there is any new information on seat belt dingers. Can the dinger be turned on/off by the Durametric?
