Hi guys.

Does anyone know how to desensitize the front passenger seat belt warning sensor? If I put my (standard size) laptop on the seat I get nagged by the seat belt warning bongs and light.

I've searched the forum for anyone with similar a problem but have not had any results.

I seem to recall taking a little heat from certain folks on this board when I first arrived for asking something similar...
