I just pulled a harness from a 72 it has on the column wiper switch but no seat belt warning system.
I've seen posts indicating 72 was the start year for this US spec. Could it be Canadian?

One of Bowlsby's posted wiring guides indicates 1972. Perhaps it was pulled by previous owner? Or perhaps the seatbelt wiring didn't come into effect until later 1972's?

Yeah it's interesting the car was built for retractable belts but had manual and the harness was pristine and in modified.
Must have been a mid year change. Thinking this harness would be nice to use for warning system delete on a 72 73 74

I would be interested in the VIN of this car...there was a mid year change in 1971 at VIN 09637. Maybe this is a late 71?
