Yeah so like the title sais, I want to do this. I'm sure I have seen a DIY on here before but I cant seem to find it, I searched a few times already. I know it's like a little box thing above the brake pedal, but i'm not sure.Â

So if anyone can find a thread for me, or at least post a pic of what the little thing looks like it will be greatly apreciated.

I just found that myself the other day. It's right to the left of the radio. You can get to it from under the dashboard. I will definately be removing that dang thing next year for car shows.

Yeah it's much beter with that stupid noise gone. It really had no use to me.

I didn't find any DIY to remove it, I ment I found the bell thing under my dashboard. I just had the keys in the ignition and tried to listen for it with a flash lights, and I felt this little thing vibrating and then disconected the wires like I read before in a how to from another site.

It should have that. There are 2 different chime boxes. One for keys in, door open. One for lights on, door open. I took the first one out and smashed it.

Ya, find the other box and switch plugs maybe. The chime may be worn out or something. Actually now that you mention it, my 99 is the same way. I wonder if maybe they didnt add the lights on one until later (all my rd2s have had it)
