seat belt chime

Hello I'm new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I've got a Crewmax 4x4 5.7 SR5 on the way. Can't wait. I've gotten tons of useful info so far.
Anyway, the idea I had was to get an extra insert( the "male end") from a salvage yard to go into the reciever housing( where the mods would take place) of the seat belt. This would, in effect, fool the sensor in the housing into "thinking" the belt was buckled and the chime should not go off. Also no mods would be made to the truck.
I don't know if when Toyota redesigned the Tundra if the seatbelts got an upgrade as well, if not then going to a salvage yard and cutting out the passenger seatbelt for the insert "male end" on 04-06 Tundras wouldn't be that big a deal and would only cost a couple of bucks..

Hope the way I explained it makes sense. I can see it in my head but don't know if translates well to the page.
