Default Air Bag fuse question and Door buzzer being annoying as f*%k can I disable it?

I love my 97 Ram but I cannot stand when I open my door while leaving it run while I open the gate to my fence it buzzing away. Is there a way I can disable it? I haven't looked in a week, but I think I remember seeing something in the dash fuse panel about the buzzer, but I pulled the fuse on that and I still had the buzzer.

Then I also wanted to pull the air bag fuses as I actually plan on raming things instead of dodging them (LOL) but anyway I just prefer not having air bags blast me in the face and would prefer taking my time being a better driver instead. There may be times where I'd need to push somebody with my front end and I don't want to worry about them going off. Anyway I pulled the fuse on my air bags and it disabled the gauge cluster/tach... short of unhooking them is there anyway to disable the air bags and still have my gauges?

remove the covers around the steering column, and unplug the little elec connector that detects "key in switch". i did that a long time ago.

this keeps dome light working, and all other buzz/chime features intact.
