As above, buy the best you can afford, that looks dangerously cheap
As above, don't put yourself at risk with that cheap tat. Out of Fia date 3" 4/5 point with snap on fixings and quality buckle will be safe and more comfortable when pulled tight.

Whichever has fuel
'eBay cage' are the ones that really grip my s**t.
Just bolted to the floor with two 10mm nuts.
f**king hell.
Jesus, Are people really that stupid that they would even consider using cheap harness'? Darwin award please.
If you really want to cheap out on something as important as a harness then at least look at something second hand from a reputable brand, Probably something out of date will be right up your street budget wise.

Also aren't all harnesses going to be bolt in? What would you clip a harness too??
Some of us don't know everything about harnesses bucket seats etc and are asking for help/advice.
While im on the topic what will I need to fit an omp subframe and corbeau clubsport seat to my clio?

You can get clip on harnesses that attach to eyelet bolts that screw into the seatbelt holes.
You'll need high tensile bolts to attach the subframe to the car. Minimum of 8.0 tensile, but 10.9 or 12.9 if you can.

Where are you planning to connect the harness to and what seats do you have? Do you have a cage?
If no don't use a harness will cause more damage to you than a normal seatbelt if you have an accident.

How many times did you crash your Saxo at 80mph?
Im too good to crash obviously lol
Yes I purchased an omp subframe and the seat already but im assuming it doesnt come with anything to fit it with?
What exactly and how many bolts and washers etc will I need.
Also reference the seatbelts how would I go about this as the seat belt "plug" is attached to the original seat?

Outside seat belt mounts are M10, buy some M10 eyebolts and re-use the holes.
Inside, you will need to drill holes and mount the eyebolts from new. I used 7/16" UNF eyebolts with spreader plates underneath. Between the bolt and the car body i used split washers.
Behind, use the schroth guide to wrap your harness around the cross bars.
Most of the subframe bolts, seat side mounts, runners etc are all M8 bolts. Use the original bolts and nuts for mounting the subframe to the body. Count up what you need and get them ordered!!
