Assuming yours is similar to mine:

1) remove screw from door contact switch in driver's door frame

2) withdraw switch from door frame

3) see the two wires on it.  The brown one is for the light, the gray
(on mine) one is for the buzzer.  Pull the gray one off and tape the
bare end really good.

4) re-install switch.

Personally I like the buzzer as it keeps me from leaving my keys in the
ignition! :-)
