Default Reversing seatbelt chime, Help!

Well I have noticed that my passenger airbag "on" light does not come on with someone in the seat and I have read that could happen with this mod so I went to find my springs to put back in and can not find them. Would anyone be willing to part with theirs? Thanks

I can't help you out with the springs, but I'll give you a bump for managing to post at the exact minute you did last night.

Aren't they about the same size as the one inside a ball point pen?
Most hardware stores also sell many sizes of springs, you might try that.
You could also hit up a wrecking yard, most newer Toyota's are going to have a similar assembly.
Good Luck

The ballpoint pen springs didn't work for me. After having the exact problem that you did, I bit the bullet and spent $45 at the dealer for a new seatbelt receiver assembly (very easy install).

Thanks MXSJW, I had to go through a few pens but found one that worked! Now the light comes on as needed. Put the driver side back too but no chime. Do you need to be going a certain speed for it to chime? Went up and down the street but nothing. Again, THANKS

Chime comes on over 5 or 10 mph...I forget which. (15 mph it's on for sure)

Glad the pen spring worked...send beer.
