How to Disable Keyless Entry Chirp on '04 Sequoia?

I give up...I've searched the boards, but I must be using the wrong key words. I've disabled the keyless entry chirp on my '02 4Runner w/ ease...but have no clue where the chirper is on my '04 Sequoia? Any help would be much appreciated.

Well, thru pure determination, I finally found that annoying little chirper. For some goofy reason, Toyota thought it best to hide it inside the driveside fender.

To access the chirper, you need to pull back the splash shield near the front of the fender. Simply remove the 3 screws holding the splash shield to the bottom of the front bumper and maybe one more screw near the top of fender. By doing so, you'll gain enough access to reach in and see the little red buzzer (mine was also wrapped in foam to keep it from rattling around inside the fender.)

Then you have two options - either unplug the chirper and remove it, then tape the exposed plug left behind to completely silence the keyless entry chirp altogether. Or do like I did to simply quiet the buzzer down: take a piece of cotton and cover the hole of the buzzer, then take some electrical tape and tape the buzzer up to hold the cotton in place. Zip tie the buzzer back in place, bolt the splash shield back in place and you're good to go!

Thanks Toyota for making this so challenging...
