When the seatbelt warning chime comes on the speaker sounds popped. Its damn annoying, anyone know how to replace it? Its comming from the center of the dash. Audio works fine, just the bloody chime is annoying. According to Realoem there is only one speaker there!?

I get this too. It is from the heat. I goes back to normal when the car cools down. I even have my windshield tinted and a white car so I can't imagine a black car.
