wires to seatbelt reel ?

[cudaneil]

Hi,
    Does anyone know why there are 2 wires going to the seatbelt reel on driver and passenger sides ? (72 cuda)

    Was there some kind of warning to put on the seatbelt maybe ?

There is a "FASTEN SEAT BELT" lamp & buzzer on my '73, located on the right most instrument bezel facing left, that disconnecting those wires disabled.

  Hmmm,  Thats strange.........I have a rallye dash and cant see anywhere there could be a seatbelt warning lamp.

The seatbelt warning lamp was in the later year E-Bodies.  Maybe the gauges are from a 70-71.

Pic, from my '73, at 2:00 of the steering wheel partially obscured round warning light.

My dash is the same as that..............but no warning light !  ( it is a 72 though)

Interesting -- do you have a 7,000 or 8,000 tach in your '72?

                          Its a 7000  Tach,  I think the wood effect has been replaced and the warning lamp hole is covered!
