I'll bet those're for the ignition interlock. You know, that
short-lived Congressional foolishness that the car couldn't be started
unless the seat belts were fastened. That meant a weight sensor on the
passenger seat. That law only lasted about 6 months before being hastily
repealed, but I think a '73 was built at just about the right time to
be originally covered by it.
