Is the four point harness easy to install?

If so I will consider taking it

[Shane001]

Well, that depends... lol

Do you have mounting points?

[bushido]

ummm.. I dont know what that means

So you're implying further mods (ie mounting points) are needed over the stock interior?

I thought they mount to the rear baby seat things?

[Shane001]

Yeah don't know about mounting to the rear baby seat, possibly... u'd have to do some research on this.

I only know how they were mounting in the race car, the rear belts were wrapped around the roll cage.

Also I don't know if these are street legal or not, so if buying these for use on the street you will need to seek advice as to the legality. Sorry I don't provide legal advice

Not much help I know. Maybe drop around on the weekend and have a look?

[bushido]

hehehe I wanted to edit my post before anyone else replied but oh well.

I have done a bit of research on mounting the harness and it seems that eveyone thinks its a bad idea to mount on the baby seat thingies.

I have just had a look at my car at it seems possible to mount them on the rear seat bottom bolts. CAMS also states that the angle between the your shoulder and where the shoulder strap is mounted shouldnt exceed 20 degrees. And it shouldnt be above your shoulder so that makes the baby seat thingie out (besides they only hold about 40kg anyway).

Apparently the willans harness (well all harnesses) are not legal without an ADR label sewn on and the mounting engineered

But alas my research continues!

[Bennoz]

You can't use the baby mounts, they're only rated to 35kg breaking strain.

The only legal place to mount them is in the existing seat belt mounts under the back seat.

Only issue with that is... the angle it creates on the rear straps is too much & wont pass CAMS scruitineering.

[Bennoz]

EDIT, you beat me too it

There are actual CAMS approved mount plates you can buy. They're a specific size & thickness. You just need to have them welded on a structural part of the car.

[Shane001]

Just to add to Ben's post, these are not CAMS approved for racing. Possibly OK for supersprints. I'll see if I can get the compliance numbers off them tonight and post them up.

Re the rear strap angle, ideally this should be level or only slightly lower than the shoulders. If you mount them to the floor you risk collapsing your spine in an accident

OUCH!

[dstocks]

ill take the oil catch can if its still available

[Shane001]

Sorry dstocks, already got a pm on that, if he doesn't confirm he wants it by tomorrow though it's yours.

Just added a pic of the bracket that comes with the catch can to the first post.

Also just added additional information for the 4 point harness.

Cheers.
