I just removed the wiring harness from my '75. I am not sure what the PO did or what happened but there are a lot of shorts with melted and exposed wiring. The seat wiring is melted into a large uniform mess.
I hate any form of lock out with seat belts. Can I remove the wiring and sensors or is there any reason I should restore the wiring under the seats and then make the modification to delete the lock out and fasten seat belt signals? I can't imagine a future owner thinking they would want to have the wiring available to connect a starter lock out to the seat belts. Thanks, DaveB |

I have a couple used harnesses but I’m not sure if the later one is a 74 or 75. I’ll be at my daughter’s college graduation for the weekend but can pull it out for pics when I get back.
I found a nos harness for my 71 on German eBay for $850. I got lucky on that one. |
