" ...  Nice cable and thick steel.  ...  "

Since I cut the original cable I ordered a replacement just incase I want to use it in my other old truck or the wife's SUV. ... Instead of using the 3' of cable , I wrapped the chain around the seat frame leg ,then ran it to the box see how much I needed then cut the chain It might be 8" of chain.  ...  "
