Do they really need to be on at all times? Other than safety!would it help my economy if I unplugged them! GAS isn't getting any cheaper! I also would like to let other cub owners know there is a issue with seatbracket bolts being too long! They go through the bracket into the GASTANK! I solved problem with washers!I discovered this problem when a hairpin fell out on the deck! Other than that she has treated me well SOOO Far! 60 hrs and counting!
