There's two systems in the safety belts:

1. the inertia-activated belt lock that keeps the belt from pulling out if there's a sudden decelleration;
2. the power-retractor that will fire off and tighten the seatbelt and lock it.


The retractors shouldn't activate if they're not connected... I think...
