There is a Black wire coming from under the upholstery that is hooked up to my seat, i disconnected it. I was wondering if I could just yank those off or do I need them? The Bucket Seat I've got doesn't have holes where they can attach. Thanks in advance

if you dont need the wire ... then just cap it off instead of yanking it. Maybe just maybe someday you will want to swap out the seats again and then .... no WIRE? DOH !!! haha

Yea, I will prolly want to switch it out someday, what do you mean by cap it off?

Well, i just popped it off. I guess I was more worried about what it did thanks for clarifying. If I run into anymore troubles I'll be back. thanks again

Edit: Well. Sucks they were passenger brackets. Guess my girl will have a tight seat instead.

That wire is for the seatbelt light in the cluster. When connected, the seatbelt light illuminates to tell you that you aren't buckled. When disconnected, the seatbelt light doesn't light when you aren't buckled. The wire connects to the seatbelt buckle so just transfer the buckle from the old seat to the new one.
