Need help picking out 6 pt harness

[Dave]

Call and ask if they come with the snap hooks - but I think they come with the flat bolt in ends.

Snap hooks are easier to install. While you'll still be drilling the same number of holes and installing the same number of plates, the advantage is that you can install your seat and then feed the lower ends of the harnesses through the holes and just clip them in. With the bolt ins, it can be more problematic, esp. with the lap belts, as the buckles, etc do not always fit or fit well through the belt holes in your seats. You are then left to try and feed thebelts through the seat and then bolt them in - and depending on where you bolt the belts down, you can run into tight clearances and it is just more of a PITA to install.

Alright, will do.


Thanks for all the help everyone.

I went thru all this same worrying and commisurating w/ my belt decisions. It will all be clear when you start ordering...........racer wholesale, discovery parts, HMS etc can all set u up.............ask more ? if u need.........youll love it when done properly.

Has anyone retained the interior panels, seat belts, and carpet while installing a roll bar and harnesses? My AutoPower roll bar sits right where factory seat belts mount, so I had to remove them. The rear seat will probably fit , but it looks like I have to smash it into place. And I don't see the rear door panels going back in. This bumps me out of DSP for Solo, which kinda sucks.

I'm considering just stripping the rest of the interior as this is only a track/autox car. I'll just get my ass handed to me in CP or DP when I autox. I'll have more fun at HPDE's with a gutted car though, haha.

Not a very good photo, but I had a similar issue when mounting the bar in my Audi Coupe (rear seat fit).

What I ended up doing was peeling back the upholstery from the sides and cutting a couple inches out of the metal frame to allow the bars to fit. Trimmed a little foam, then reattached the leather and smooshed it into place. It wouldn't wrinkle around the bars with the metal frame in there. Crinkles up the upholstery a little, but works.
