What are those wires under my front seats?

I saw some wires hanging under my front seats (2k GXE no C/C package). What are these, anybody? And what are my options to convert to leather seating,$$? Thanx

No they are the power seat harness that you could have got with the C/C package

Might be the heated seat wires. I have the C&C package with power seat, but I have a few unused wires under the seat.

Thicknes, you probably don't want to cut them. Just tie them off to get them out of the way.

hhmmmmm seats aren't heated either.....not too much need for that in miami (also the same reason i didnt get the leather package.....leather and short dresses/skirts do not go well together)

i will try to zip tie them to the actual seat so they stop getting caught

ok none gave me a definite answer on what are these wires. Are these power lines? Does it mean I can use them to power the amp if I decide to mount one under the seat?

NO IS YOUR ANSWER TO USING THEM AS A POWER SOURCE FOR A AMP! Unless you want an actual fire to break out as a result

I also doubt the wires can provide the juice you need for an amp. Most amps require 4-8 gauge wire direct from the battery. Those wires under the seat are 18-gauge at best, so they draw a lot less power.
