I have one I will give you,,, soon as I dig that irritating piece of crap off the end of my sledge hammer.
It may need a little repair...
Really.. you actually use one? The drive me insane.

Well after 25 years, mine died the other day > today (daylight) I had my headlights on because it was pouring rain. Got out of the truck (no chime) reminding me my lights were on...and they stayed on until I looked outside several hours later.
Besides, I kinda like OE stuff.

Maybe in your neck of the woods but around here 25 year old vehicles went to the crusher 10 years ago.
If they where 25 yo old vehicles that went to the crusher 10 years ago they would be 35 now just so you know

Guess I've always been spoiled then... even up north in the Midwest where I grew up, you could find 20-30 year old vehicles pretty regularly, and that was over 10 years ago. If you want me to, the next time I'm at the junkyard I can try and find a few for you.
That thing is the first thing to go on my stuff! Mine was in the ash tray area on my f250. The one in my jeep was soldered to the back of the cluster and it met its fate with a pair of channel locks. I've been searching for the one on my moms Kia. That ones deafening .

That's how you comprehended my post, a 25 year old vehicle that went to the crusher ten years ago would have been 15 years old when it was CRUSHED and now > 'history'!If they where 25 yo old vehicles that went to the crusher 10 years ago they would be 35 now just so you know
Allow me to clarify...in my area 'junk yards' don't usually keep 25 year old 'junk-vehicles'...they usually end up at the crusher waaaay before that.
And BTW, the upper-end XLT Lariat's had a pleasant 'door ding' not the lower-end seat-belt buzzzzzzzzer sound > ewww

Replaced mine with a little electronics kit I got from a garage sale it chirps instead of dinging but it serves it's per-pause i guess

I made one for my brother-in-law for Christmas last year that plays his Favorite country song. He hated the ding ding ding in his Silverrouto 
I pulled one off a brick-nose truck not too long ago...at least on the brick, it's behind the ashtray, probably easiest to access from the driver's side. This is what it looks like:

There were two other boxes next to it...one's the cruise control amplifier, the other's the ABS control module. The slant-nose won't have the ABS module, and I'm not 100% certain they're in the same spot, but I would imagine they're close...
(Sorry; I'm not letting go of this box...I want a chime instead of a buzzer, and I'm absent-minded enough that I need the reminder...)

Ha...took mine apart and put it back together and it 'dings' faintly!
Mounted/bolted to a bracket up to the right of the steering column...gotta lay on your back to see and get to it.
My Ford part #E6AB-10D840-A2A
$90 + shipping from the STEALER > fock that!
Researching to find out what other vehicles/Fords it was used in and how late it was used.
