Similarly the seat belt chime only sound when the speed is over 20km/h(equivalent to xx miles), if it is easier, how possible is it to hook up the handbrake wire to seat belt chime?

I would really like to have one that works only when the car is moving, can you briefly explain where i have to connect to make this work, I will try my best to figure it out myself.

Thanks

I think it may have just been a feature added in 07 or 08. If that is the case, changing the cluster to a newer might make it work (although the ebrake switch is an input to the body ECU, rather than the cluster).

Bridging the seatbelt and ebrake would be way more difficult than adding a motion based signal to the ebrake.

If you want to experiment with a beeper, tie the - side to the yellow wire on the ebrake switch and the + side to the pink wire on the ignition switch connector.
