Why do folk always write comments like that on threads like these?  Of course you are going to wear a seat belt when driving, you would be an idiot not to. As soon as the ignition it turned on the bonger starts without giving you the chance to do anything, unless you belt up before hand. Thats annoying as hell. Some people like to have the car running for a moment while they sort things out rinside, like kids, the stereo, mobile phones etc etc without being stuck in your seat by the belt or the bonger doing your head in. THEN they put the belt on when they're ready to drive.
[/quotemine only chimes when I go over 5 mph so not when I turn on

My 56 plate gti only starts going off once you hit 15mph. Still annoying though if you go to the chip shop and put them on the passenger seat on the way home, the car thinks someone is sat there.

Dont bother with vagcom, just take the plastic cover off under each seat, its about 6'' x 3'', then follow the 2 wires down from the seat and unplug them from the box. Hey presto no bonging sounds anymore. No dash lights, airbags still work and mot passable.  :happy2:
Be careful, only pull and unplug the 2 wire loom, if you unplug the 3 wire loom and turn the ignition back on you get a airbag fault! This is the airbag loom obvs! I did that and had to get the main stealer to reset it error (which they did for free)  :congrats:
