thats for keeping your date in the truck if you need to step out for a min! lol. honestly i think it may have somthing to do with a baby seat anchor not 100% sure.

that is true. i think it says not to put the baby carrier in with the back facing the airbag. but i belive that is what the passenger air bag key on/off switch is for. im not sure but that is the only reason i can think of for having a random hook mounted to a seat.

No, it wouldn't be for that.........it's all the way to the left side.

Someone one the FSC forum said it was for the back passenger to be able to release the seat to slide forward to get out. I've wiggled it and it doesn't seem to move.

Hahaha. I've always wondered WTF that thing was for as well, and people who always sat in the back of my 2door could never figure it out either.
