If it's anything like my old narrow body, there's a little box under the passengers seat with an on/off swith somewhere on it... that's it...

yes even my Eterna has that! I'm sure I've talked about this previously.. it's part of that funny little box under the passenger seat which controls wiper intermittent speed, rear demister timer, courtesy lights etc.

It's a feature on all Japanese domestic models.

I got it too :) It does get annoying at times, but i wanted a full jdm spec car. Its funny when you have your key half in the ignition, and it changes between tunes.

Yeah I love mine. If anyone has been to Japan, it will remind you of the train stations. AHHH I love it.

Yeah mine changes tune when the key goes in ignition too.

I also have a Jap Old style turbo timer someone installed, and it plays a tune when it is running. BUT I turned that one off as it was "Its a small world after all"

:wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

The chiming stops after maybe 15 seconds. So it doesn't drive you insane if you are working on the car.

I wouldn't trade my chime for the world :D
