The buzzer is a little box under the drivers side dash. As I recall, it's bolted to the bracket that holds the parking brake peddle. It looks like this:

Sometimes you can take them apart and fix them.

Why so long? The buzzer is held on with 1 bolt. 20 minutes R+R.

It's much easier to take out than the cruise amp, you can reach the mounting bolt/screw with no problem.

My buzzer makes a real weenie-type sound. Are they all like that or do they sound tougher when working right?

I too would be interested in retrofitting a different type of buzzer, something less offensive. Does anybody know if it could be done- maybe a newer MB buzzer? I have also always like the mid 90's VW "european ambulance" door/ignition buzzer
