Snoopy Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 All I'll say is, would you trust your life to 30 quid harnesses?I can't see anything wrong with them from the picture, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted January 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 All I'll say is, would you trust your life to 30 quid harnesses? Ive seen two other sets for sale, on the Mitzi forum.One set at £80 and the other at £100.Of course, they could turn out to be *****.More pics here.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v725/vix...cs/25e0cdd5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v725/vix.../Picture012.jpg Paddy, pics?

Tigz™ Posted January 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 the only thing i would have said no is the rally art logos which is Jap crap, like nismo stickers on a ford you just dont do it I agree.Plan is to remove the stiching.

1 Litre Screamer Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 (edited) I agree.Plan is to remove the stiching.Dont do that!!! stop quick! get a set of harness pads to put over them, under no circumstances take them off. the stitching is through the harness webbing and to remove them leaves a void that the webbing fills,this cause a minor and non visible faluire line in each belt.That is until you need the strength and then they stretch and snap.

Tigz™ Posted January 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Ah.. ****** it.Not using harness pads, cant deside why those things were invented.Never seen a race car with pads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Litre Screamer Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Ah.. ****** it.Not using harness pads, cant deside why those things were invented.Never seen a race car with pads!we use them on all the race cars,i even have them in my lupo!, the belts feel fine on your shoulders without pads until you start to corner and brake hard,then they dig into your shoulders,trust me! if not see how long you can last without pads,i'll give you a week or 2 at the most before you start to think ouch my shoulders hurt!

Vixwagen Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 When I was a kid, my mum had a 205 GTi which had harnesses in the back - they hurt like hell!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The subtle modder Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I had buckets and harnesses in my cinq and was all perfectly legal and insurance charged no extra for them oddlyTigz think you should of waited personally as they ait gonna match your car and agree with daz youll soon be using harness pads after a while of driving the car especaily if you drive in a 'spirited way'wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 It seems odd that you guys use harness pads.Ive had my harnesses and seats (both Sparco) in for a couple of years and never had a problem, maybe us Southerners are made of stronger stuff after all!
