I like it as well, I use it just as a reminder to shift, so I don't gotta watch the tach.
Try driving around at redline and follow the sound, then stab it. Failing that, try stabbing random electrical boxes.
In seriousness, I believe there is something you can desolder in the ol' cpu. Try a search.

Hey, don't ignore Hailers. He's the bomb! He's hot! ...no, cool! Whichever is better!
He's with it (whatever "it" is)! He's got it together! (There's that "it" again. Must be one of those items you buy at the store with "some assembly required"....)
Oh yeah, and he posted the answer to "how do you disarm it" also!
Seriously, the buzzer on my guage cluster isn't working. Wanna trade???

The engine does not make more power after redline.  If your car does, you've put enough money into the engine that this shouldn't be a problem.
The redline buzzer is there for a reason.  You wanna rev past that and blow everything up, be my guest.  Same with the LOW COOLANT - you loose coolant, you're going to fry the motor.  There is a reason why the SAME buzzer is used for LOW COOLANT, LOW OIL, and overrev - you guys wanna kill your engines, then go right ahead...

Keith(Irv), you be rite, I be cool. Pull the combination meter out of the car and desolder the buzzer. Thats the only way.Period.....And take heed of what Ted said. There's a reason for the buzzard and it includes the low water warning. Oh, the combination meter is that thing in front of the steering wheel with a lot of gauges on it with little pointers that swing madly back and forth when reving the engine, and has a pcb attached to the back side with a *buzzar* soldered in place. If you look at the factory manual at http://iluvmyrx7.com and look at the wiring diagram for METERS you will see that the only ways to make the buzzard not go off is to jam a screwdriver squarly into it and twist and turn, or desolder it, or never go above the trip rpm. Or how about getting some eastman 910 and smearing it on the needle so it does not move?
