Harness fitting and best one to buy

[davetherave]

Hi all what is the best harness to buy I no I will need a harness bar to attach them to which the top part will go through the holes in the seats the part that goes around your wast does that also attach to the harness bar as Im not sure or does it bolt through the floor. Looking to buy 3 point ones Thanks

I brought a 3 point wrap round one from safety devices which was reasonably priced and is installed using the existing two seatbelt holes them wrapped round the harness bar...simple. cheers

I bought the 6 point Camlock Racequip harness and really like the quality and feel of the harness. I've tried the Latch/Link version too, but the Camlock just felt much more polished. I'm confident either would hold in a crash.

Thanks guys so the lap parts just bolt into the existing seat belt holes to fix the lap part as I don't fancy drilling new holes in the floor

For the in board mount on the drivers side I ended up adding an extra steel plate and a standoff so the parking brake wouldn't rub against the harness. mevowners.proboards.com/post/80688/thread

Dave. We used 4 point LUKE harness. Just purchased seatbelt anchor eye bolts and used the standard chassis mounting holes. Harness just clipped on to the eye bolts and wraps around the generic grip seat fine.

Hi dave how do you like the exocet. If you have any questions about the build please message me and I'll do my best to help. I may be wrong but fitting harnesses to that car will obviously need a harness bar, but i think that fitting one will mean the rear cover will need moving back a bit and it will be almost impossible to get the harness bar powder coated the same gold colour. I guess black could work just as well. The gold can be sourced from the company that sells the diy powder coating at home machine. They are usually at stoneleigh. I will be at stoneleigh on the sunday so maybe you'll be there with the car. Good luck.

Hi jpsjay have sent you a message

I've always preferred any cam lock setup.
Don't forget to have some protection for when you and your passenger flops the harness's out of the way.

I welded in a crush tube and used the stock miata belts.
