Crazy Dinging Sound

I posted a message a couple weeks ago about the seat belt light and dinger constantly coming on. Well I got that fixed and I now have a ding everytime I hit a bump and its driving me crazy. I'm not even going to try to fix the problem, I would rather just disconnect wherever all these dings are coming from. Can anyone tell me exactly where all these noises come from, assuming that they all come from the same place? Even a non specific place such as the dash somewhere would be fine with me. I just dont want to take apart the whole car to find this damn thing, cause its driving me nuts. Thanks for all the help in advance, Josh.

Leave the key in and open the door, or have the car on and open the door, whatever it takes to make the thing go off constantly. Take the pad that's under the steering wheel off, look up underneath, there's a little black box more on the center console side. That's the speaker that makes all the annoying little ding's. Just unplug it and throw it at a brick wall as hard as you can and there ya go. I've mine out for about 2yrs now, just gotta remember to shut the lights off when you get out of the car.
