I found how to prevent that annoying bell from chiming every time I start my 3rd gen 4runner. Their are two wires going to the seat belt recepticle. Remove the electrical tape holding them in place and cut the two wires. Thats all you have to do!

To get rid of the door chime remove the lower dash cover and look under the ignition lock cylinder. Their is a connector below the lock cylinder. Pull it out and the door chime will stop.

Be sure and reconnect them before you sell the truck.

Can you tell me exactly where the seat belt recepticle can be located?

I was able to get rid of the door chime following your directions - thanks

Their is black electrical tape around the base of the seat belt recepticle. If you unwrap it and cut the wires it will take care of the problem. Be sure to wrap them up so you don't have a hot wire hanging out. Thats what I did. But if you are smarter than me you can trace those wires to the recipticle. I didn't bother looking.
