Hello all,
Vehicle: 1999 Porsche Boxster
Issue: One of the seat control wiring looms has come loose from its mounting point and is getting caught in the seat rails, which causes the fuse to blow. When I manually free the loom, everything works correctly.

I’m trying to determine where this wiring loom is supposed to be secured to the seat. The loose loom has a plastic push-in expanding rivet, but I’m not sure where it should be installed. I’ve checked the parts catalog, but it doesn’t show this specific component or its mounting location. Does this mount to floor pan or the seat frame?

Please see the attached photo—the part in question is circled in yellow
Thank you for your time!!
