I think I've got three or four somewhere in the garage if you feel the need.&nbsp\\; Personally, loose it!&nbsp\\; A pocket knife, and a phillips screwdriver and your seat is gone, so it's no deterrent.

I drilled out the rivets and then drilled out the holes a little. I then remounted the metal tabs and they work great to hook bungee cords to strap down my Kuryakin bag.&nbsp\\;

I thought that some states and provinces require the strap by law (can any LEOs confirm this?)
