Been wondering about these orange straps, I have only seen a very few. What do we know about them?

What is their function?

My limited info suggests they are on the 1973 cars...but were these provided on all/other years? D-Jet only or L-Jet too? All engine sizes?

Original factory equipment or recall?

What are these made of - cloth, vinyl, rubber? Length/width/thickness? A pair of holes for mounting?

Anyone have these available or willing to repro them? I will buy one if available.
