no no i dont mean put it over the back seat an down to the bolts...wat i mean is take out the bench part of your back seat(the bit your arse sits on) an under that u have the holsters that ur back seat belts clip into take them out an bolt the shoulder straps to there...so its comin over your shoulder an over your seat an down to where the bolsters are...get me now??

I get you now! and then can i refit the arse of the back seat?

i think (not sure) the manufacturers recommend 45 degree for the shoulder straps but in my cars i have to run them straight down the floor behind the seat.

i also never have used eyes and taken some huge hits and never broke anything on the harness, good m12 bolt and some decent washers. if i were putting a harness in a drifter if use some eyes though as its not as butchered looking!

think you have the side straps figured out now?not the way they are in the pic anyway...

ya you could if you can get the 2 harness straps thro the hole where the bolsters comes up through the seat but obviously nobody would be able to sit behind you in the car

Awwww man now you have me conflusted lol

Whats up with them in the pic? I know the buckle needs to sit further down, and the belts maybe the wrong way around or something but the route they take is ok isnt it?

I would have thought the 30degree thing is for people who's shoulders come higher than the belt holes in the seat, and mine dont im sure. Anyway ill try for as high as possible.

he means to stick them down under the back rest part of the seat where it meets the bit ur arse is on..that way its comin up through the seat an around you an not around the seat and you...it'll hold you tighter that way

wat he's on bout is runnin the lap strap down thro were i circled in red on seat in the pic instead of round the seat

Rather than around the outside of the frame (looks silver in that pic)??

**Livewire 78** · 07-04-10, 14:21
