I want to turn them off in my 2007 Honda Accord.
The simple way to make the beeping stop is to wear your seat belt — duh! We do admit, though, that those chimes can be downright annoying, especially when we’re taking notes in a press car with the engine running. It’s currently federal regulation that all cars and trucks have a seat belt reminder, even if all it does is blink on the dashboard when the belt isn’t buckled. Advanced systems use an active approach and will beep at you every few seconds, while others beep faster and louder if you start accelerating without the seat belt buckled.
It’s possible to disable the advanced reminder system on some cars, which will be outlined in the owner’s manual if your car has that flexibility. If it doesn’t, then you’re out of luck and will have to deal with the chimes or beeps. Needless to say — but we’re going to say it anyway, just to cover our own seat belt-wearing behinds — we do not recommend disabling the seat belt chime in any circumstance. It’s there to remind you to put on a life-saving device before you head out into the streets.

that was no help whatsoever
take the seatbelt clip apart, there is a switch inside there, remove the spring and tape down the part that moves
That was also no help to me whatsoever..
Or even easier, just buy a spare seatbelt "tongue" and clip it into the buckle.
Why create a link to this unhelpful response? I want 3 minutes of my life back.
Seriously, if I read one more response to my google question that gives the answer, "wear your seat belt!" I'm going to lose it. Seat belts are great and I fully believe in wearing them. However, Honda does not have the moral authority over my decisions. The owner of my company does not wear seat belts because he worked as an EMT and has seen people burned to death because their seat belt melted together during a blaze and they could not escape. It is not Honda's responsibility to monitor my behavior. They just want to have a higher "safety rating" for marketing purposes.
I have a leased Honda so I am stuck with the chiming, but I will tear the goddamn thing apart if I decide to buy it to turn this thing off.
This is from another post and i used copy/paste here.
Here is what i did on my 2004 honda accord ex maybe it will work for others. Now im not an eclectrical engineer or anything but im also not new to wiring things. There is wire set that goes to the drivers side seat belt to the right side of the drivers seat. Break away the out layers and carefully cut each wire one by one, there should be 3. Dont cut all 3 at once to elminate the risk of a short, leave a little extra going into the seat belt part incase you need to un due this one day.
Now of the 3 wires there should be three one black, one red with a blue stripe and one blue with a red stripe. Strip the rubber of the ends of the BLUE WITH RED STRIPE AND THE BLACK ONLY. (you must look at all wires VERY CAREFULLY because the red and blue ones look almost exactly alike. The stripe will be the thinner of the two colors). Take that and twist it to the black, tape it up and tuck it away! HURRAY! LIFE IS SWEET AGAIN, NO MORE DAM BEEP WHEN IM DRVING LIKE 1 FREAKING BLOCK!
As an added precaution i took a volt meter and tested all 3 wires before i connected any of them. you may have to do this if your wires dont match. the black is the negative and the other two are positive but with different voltages one about 12 the other about 3 volts. you are connecting the one with the lower voltage to the negative.
NOTES
Now im not a genuis with this but i was scared to connect ths wires and run the risk of a short or worse a fire?? i doubt that but im paranoid with my new car. I think its only completeing a circut thats why it shows up as voltage, its not like regular neg and pos where it will short. so far mine does not get warm and works fine. check yours for heat.
another note you dont have to connect any wires to stop the beep but if you dont it may disable the airbags and a light will show on your dash for sure. it looks like a magnifiing glass on a seat. this annoyed me too so i connected them. Good luck and post if this works for you and what year make and model honda!
All cars have codes for disengaging/engaging various safety/warning features such as audible noises and lights. There is no need to physically cut or jump wires. My Toyota Avalon had a sequence of depressing brake pedal and pushing odometer button 3 times to disengage seat belt warning chimes. I'm sure there is a code out there for the Honda Accord. As far as all the people with their safety comments for others, how about minding your own business and let others take resposibility for themselves and make their own choices.
