Attaching harnesses to rear Strut brace?

[chrispy.clio]

Picking up some Sparco Rev Buckets on sunday. I will eventually buy harnesses, but if i get 4 point harnesses can a attach the two that go over my shoulders to a rear strut brace?

I think the answer is gona be no but just thougth i'd ask.

Also what make of harnesses are recomended, Dont wana pay stupid prices, but would like a good make.

Sabelt or Willans i prefer mate.

No i wouldnt attach to rear strut brace. A lot of people bolt them to the floor or use 3 points and attach to the rear seatbelt mounts.

big no no on a strut brace

Yeah i thought so, I'l look into the harnesses that attach to the floor of the rear seats.

Weld a bar between the turrets if you must and use that, deffo not onto the strut brace. that could really hurt if you crashed.

will need something welded in by the handbrake also for the lap piece to clip to

Can i not use the bit that the seatbelt clips into. As in take it out and bolt the harnesses to the floor there?

Probably better to gaffer tape them to the floor. Seat belt mounting points are the best if you dont have a cage

 

[rexe]

which is the best colour gaffer tape to use, any brand preference. I would of thought silver duck tape branded stuff would work well

I use Black personaly

Silver is Best with the Fabric Lines running through it

 

[Jay Payne]

yea but black goes with everything

Red, it'll cover the blood when you die.

All right all right. It was just a question lol. They are getting attached to the floor :rasp: with bolts

 

[CBetts]

cable ties work quite well too, i found!

some sticky back plastic wont go a miss

Velcro isn't bad either makes them much easier to fit and remove.
