Guys...I'm pretty sure he's smart enough to drive on the road with a seat belt. I'll grab my manual and post the info up...including the disclaimer!

Yet another example why it would be nice to have it off. Maybe instead of criticizing you should figure out why I want it off then talk!!!!!

OK, heres how to do turn off the seatbelt reminder: (it seems like kind of strange procedure, I havent done it myself)
Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. DO NOT START
THE ENGINE.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (Approximately 1
minute).
Step 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.
3. For the seating position being disabled, at a moderate speed, buckle
then unbuckle the safety belt nine times, ending in the unbuckled state.
Step 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.
After Step 3, the safety belt warning light will be turned on for three
seconds.
4. Within approximately seven seconds of the light turning off, buckle
then unbuckle the safety belt.
This will disable the Belt-Minder Feature for that seating position if it
is currently enabled. As confirmation, the safety belt warning light will
flash four times per second for three seconds.
This will also ENABLE the Belt-Minder feature for that seating position if it
is currently disabled. As confirmation, the safety belt warning light will
flash four times per second for three seconds, followed by three
seconds with the light off, then followed by the safety belt warning
light flashing four times per second for three seconds again.
Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. DO NOT START
THE ENGINE.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (Approximately 1
minute).
Step 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.

then unbuckle the safety belt nine times, ending in the unbuckled state.
