I already answered this but it seems none of my posts have been apporoved since Friday?

Weedahoe, it's best to not take a shortcut on this one. Your dealing with seatbelts and installing a quick connector is not something i would want to do with the electronics part. it's just as easy to do the manual way. it's something like plug in your seatbelt, do the ignition thing 3x's and unplug the belt. that's it!

^^^^Yes. It should. But I have to add one thing. If you alter the seatbelts in ANY way at all and you have an accident and the seatbelts fail. You cannot Sue Chrysler for that. Actually, Your insurance Company could hold you liable for all medical costs if they proved to a court that it interfered with your safety.
Do it right. Get the owners manual. The little red light on the dash won't even be noticeable after a week.

When I bought my truck new off the lot, the ding drove me nuts. I hardly ever wear my seatbelt. I actually pulled into a parking lot on the way home from the dealership, grabbed the manual and disabled it. Have had the little red seatbelt dude staring at me for 5 years now, I don't even notice he's there...

Yeah it will make the light stay off. It basically simulates the seatbelt being plugged it. But Dirty does bring up a good point. I did mine like this when I first bought my truck and before it was told that it could be altered through programming. But being mine is done im not messing with it.
