. All said, I would never kick any of them out of my garage!No no no no no Mike!! my 72 has the really cool red light too!!I voted for the 73's, but I agree the 71's did have the best engine choices, but I prefer the script "Mustang" emblem on the trunk lid that the 72/73's have instead of the Mustang spelled out across the whole back of the trunk lid. I like the unique aluminum wheels that were only available on the 73's instead of the more common Magnum 500 wheels. And remember, only the 73's have the cool red illuminated "Fasten Seat Belt" sign above the glove box
And yes!! it is original of the car so... leru leruuuuu mine has it tooo!!! jejeI guess I got a '73 dash in my '72 F code! I have the "Fasten Seat Belt" indicator in mine. The buzzer drives me crazy because my dog sits in the passenger seat and she's just heavy enough to trip the switch occasionally, so the buzzer constantly goes on and off!I voted for the 73's, but I agree the 71's did have the best engine choices, but I prefer the script "Mustang" emblem on the trunk lid that the 72/73's have instead of the Mustang spelled out across the whole back of the trunk lid.

I responded too quickly and didn't see Damian's post! Damian, have you traced the wires out to see if they are broken? There's a switch in the seatbelt reel that senses when the seat belt is deployed, and I think there is a sensor in the seat that sees if someone is sitting in the seat.No no no no no Mike!! my 72 has the really cool red light too!!I voted for the 73's, but I agree the 71's did have the best engine choices, but I prefer the script "Mustang" emblem on the trunk lid that the 72/73's have instead of the Mustang spelled out across the whole back of the trunk lid.

Doesnt work by the way...
That's interesting, the 1972 Mustang Brochure in the dash picture does not show the fasten seat belt light in it. I wonder if all the 72's have them or if it was a mid-year change?No no no no no Mike!! my 72 has the really cool red light too!!

Damián, there is a way to get your seat belt light working again, see my original post here:

Yep, I was pretty happy to find that little seat belt light device for sale - so simple to install too, and the light coming on for the first 20 seconds is really cool and effective especially at night time.Great info!!... I missed that when you posted!!... You know.. my car has everything over there but i still have some wiring on some boxes
the buzzer on the seat belts is not connected either and maybe, this light works with that harness somehow... i´m gonna check it and if i dont get the clue of how this is supposed to work, i´ll go with your system
Thanks!!
Interesting fact, so that's why the 72 brochure did not show the light.
AMEN!
