Stock seats with Racing Harnesses?
 
Hey, I haven't really had a chance to figure this out.

Anyone know if the stock seats will be ok for racing harnesses? I figure I'll end up doing a half-cage and I REALLY like the stock seats.


Any thoughts?

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

Racing harnesses are designed for racing seats. Without the proper positioning of the shoulder harnesses they are rendered useless or even harmfull in some cases. Not to mention, you can't properly use an anti-submarine (crotch) belt unless you want to cut a hole in your stock seat.

If its staying put in your seat that you are concerned about, check out the CG-Lock. Cheap, removeable, and designed to work with your stock seat belt to keep it locked in place and keep you from sliding around in the seat.

If its safety you're concerned about, keeping everything stock is much safer than having some racing safety parts and some stock parts. Its either all the way stock, or full race gear (roll bar/seat/harnesses/helmet/hans). Those are the only truly safe ways to do it.

Gotcha... Thanks. Never needed any of that before cause I was only drag racing. The most you ever needed was a roll bar and helmet! :D

Thanks for the info.
