Default What are these?

I was on my hands and knees this afternoon and noticed these wires under both front seets.


Any idea what they are?

Slightly later I also noticed this socket/plug under the drivers side dashboard


What is it for?

It really was a 'voyage of discovery'

Top photo should be heated seat connection and seatbelt pretentioner I think.

Bottom photo is the OBD (diagnostics) connector - that is where (amongst others) T4 gets plugged in when you go to your friendly mechanic

Which ones which?, when my airbag light came on I wiggled both but would like to go for the "hard wire" option that gets mentioned.
