I doubt it. If you consistently have reason not to use a seatbelt, your best option is to pull a belt off any Toyota in a junkyard, cut off the clip, and stick it into the socket.

Sure it can. Take it to the dealer. It is in your manual under "Programmable functions that can be modified."
The chime can easily be turned off for either the passenger or driver or both.
I believe this is included in the Owner's Manual. :rtfm: LOL
Or you can find the link right here in the sticky.
As stated in the details above, simply ask your service adviser to perform these customization's at your next visit to the dealership. Most dealerships will try and charge you, sometimes an arm and a leg, for a what ultimately takes just a few minutes. Be kind and see if you can get them to do it for free. Good luck.

It sure was enjoyable 4 wheeling this past week without the chime. I was in a spot where I was getting in n out of the truck a lot and a seatbelt wouldn't have helped much.
Now if I can just figure out how to disable the door chime I can ghost ride in peace.

I know this is an older thread. However, does anyone know if all this info is current for the 2016s? Also, what are some sources for the Techstream software? I would really like to have the ability to do this myself.

Go here: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-g...ner-owner-need-help-searching-start-here.html
search for "techstream" -- reams have been written.
FYI to others: my dealer refused to do this, cited "safety concerns".

1) No shit.
2) When I am offroad, jumping in and out to spot trails, etc, the seatbelt ding will drive me mad.
3) I don't need my car to be my nanny. I am an adult. I can decide when I need to wear my seatbelt and when I do not.
Thanks,
Bart

1. Then Do it
2. get a spotter, never wheel alone
3. But you have to go on a forum to ask what your dealer or techstream can do
I was just kidding but since you wanted to be an ass I thought I d jump on board

I plan to.
This is pretty unreasonable. Sure, I wheel with friends when I can, but I don't always go camping with other parties. There are times when I am out alone and I do not see a problem with wheeling alone as long as normal precautions are taken. But this is an entirely different discussion.
I am not asking if it can do it, I was asking if this info in this thread was current for the 2016. It was a legit question, for which you gave a useless answer.
Really? Because I was also kidding. See how that works? Tough to know if someone is being serious or kidding or "wanting to be an ass" based on a one line sentence. And I will admit, you DID prick a sensitive spot. I hate the nanny state of our society these days.
Either way, just looking for some actual info here, as I am new to 4Runners and all the new-fangled crap they come equipped with.
Thanks,
Bart
