I have that same heater, for that exact same process.

[Dude]

Waiting to button up the interior until I figure out a way to get some heat in the car.

[Dude]

Got alot of work done organizing the wiring under the dash, but now the radio, tach (just the tach, I blew the fuse somehow, replaced it, and the temp gauge works but not the tach) and also the windows. Wiring is a pain in the dick, im in pretty far over my head. Hopefully having some help on wednesday and this weekend. Then im gonna start looking for a fresh interior and invent some DIY heaterbox with the existing heater core and some fans.

[Dude]

If you're not busy saturday and if you're not done I'll be there by 2pm. And we'll do everything I promise.

what about friday?

I fucking hate you. Today would have been so much better if you could have made it here.

Starting pulling the mess further apart. Now the tach wont work and the radio wont work when connected. Also a bunch of wires that arent connected to anything and im not sure if i can just snip em if i dont need em. Ive decided im not gonna go with the stock heater box. I think img going to attempt to make my own using a box ill make with a heater core installed. Then hook up a small fan or two to blow air through the core and then run some duction to the footwellls and up to the windsheld. Could be interesting.

Also picked up a propane heater. Heats up my detached 2 car garage quite well. Happy about that.

[Dude]

Here we go now.
















And the e30tech sticker gone!

You can actually use 6 pt belts on a stock seat as well; it's 5 point belts that are an issue without a sub-belt hole. The 6 point belts can be slipped between the upper and lower half of the seat, and then sat on/wrapped up between the legs. 4 point belts are a big no-no, unless you want your internal organs to come out of your mouth.

[kishg]

I dont even think you can run 6pt belts on these seats

??

we are talking about these seats yes?

Btw food for through

[briansjacobs]

good point Kish, thought he was referring to belts but could be bar. so yes to 4 pt bar, no to 4 pt belts and internal organ crushing. Yes to an improper fitted sub belt crushing your nuts in an enduro, wont do that again!

[kishg]

by 4-pt did you mean the bar or belts? yeah, no to 4-pt belts, stick to 6-pt unless you want your internal organs crushed.

[briansjacobs]

I would avoid a 4 point like the fucking plague, then again with those seats you probably dont have an option to use 3 points which are generally safer than a 4 point unless you are using the Schroth 4 point that is designed to work with the factory tensioners.
