Put me down for a set too...:thumb:

Just what I've been after!

PM on it's way.

wrighty338 11 July 2010 06:56 PM

Great stuff, two more :)

alex_00s 15 July 2010 12:15 PM

Would these OMP harnesses be a good option to use with this bar on your regular Scooby seats?

wongy 15 July 2010 03:34 PM

been thinking of putting harnesses in too just not sure on how to atach the belt properly to the harness bar :wonder:

wrighty338 15 July 2010 05:46 PM

not sure lads, would be a great help if people who already bought harness's posted up which they got and how they attached them. iv not fitted mine or even got round to thinking about harness's yet, id have thought ones without the bolts, ie 2 seater car ones like Takata's which il probably end up going for.

alex_00s 15 July 2010 06:04 PM

I was looking through the other threads for some ideas of how to fit them...

These are JonMc's...

But these I like...

They belong to 'C8 DHC 04WRX' and I really really really like how these are attached to the harness bar, very neat and tidy :)
Do you think he'd give us step by step pointers of how to acheive this?

He hasnt attached the crotch harnesses properly, they're just for show until he gets bucket seats, but on normal scooby seats like these a 4-point harness (as in my prev post) would do the trick no?

wongy 15 July 2010 06:26 PM

the green harness belts is how i would like to do mine at some point very tidy

alex_00s 16 July 2010 08:55 AM

Agreed, looks much better than when the extra length of the belts dangle all over the place :thumb:

If C8 DHC 04WRX is reading this :notworthy

Bicco 16 July 2010 11:33 AM

Found this link when I was wondering what to do when I get mine:

I have some three bar slides waiting. :)

That's a brilliant write up. I noted one point which stresses the importance of the belts when attaching to the harness bar, to be in level with your shoulders.

Looking at C8 DHC 04WRX the harness bar looks a little lower than shoulder height or is that just me?

JonMc's look spot on for height tho.

Bicco 16 July 2010 04:01 PM

I think the picture makes it look more of an angle than it is, with the bar being so close to the back of the seat, the angle is no where near as important as if they where fastened further back.

wrighty338 17 July 2010 04:51 PM

anywhere within a 20 degree angle of where your shoulders are is acceptable in safety terms of the bar, but Dans seats are completely different to Jons if you look

hopefully start taking payment for these late next week for posting the week after? all going well.

wongy 17 July 2010 05:02 PM

sounds good to me cant wait to get this fitted :norty:

alex_00s 18 July 2010 06:04 PM

I've found some sexy seat belts made by OMP...

...but will have to put this little lot on hold as the bar + 2xbelts = circa £500.

Its a definate buy on my car shopping list! :)

swrtno1 18 July 2010 09:15 PM

Hi guys here is a link to fitting instructions specific to subaru, just had a quick look through but seems to be quite a good fitting guide

http://www.sparcousa.com/resourceFiles/42.pdf

Hope this helps, I like the look of the harness bars and harness. I would be in on this gb but just dont have the funds at the mo :(

wrighty338 19 July 2010 06:28 AM

Monday bump would like the last 2 sold really so i can get them all out at the same time, or even one more and il take the 7th :)

Antonyworldwide 19 July 2010 09:35 AM

Thanks for the link, great guide...

...oh man... I really really want these, but like a few others gotta wait, grrr!

wrighty338 - as per that guide that 'swrtno1' just posted, can those extra bits (to stop harness sliding) be added??

makkink 19 July 2010 03:51 PM

You would look for me what is cost to send one to the netherlands.

wrighty338 20 July 2010 07:31 AM

they can be added i dont see why not but the bars are made and coated now and i arnt sure if we are doing anymore after this.

makkink i can look into it

C8 DHC 04WRX 20 July 2010 10:50 PM

Hello.

Thanks for the compliments regarding my harness install! I will try to get some more pictures of the install soon and include an explaination of what I did.

My harness bar does sit about right but I would ideally like it a bit higher. I have my seat very upright as I have long legs and short arms! I could do with a bar that is not as wide so I can fit it further up on the b-pillar. The b-pillar tapers in so the bar will only go on the 1st or 2nd notch up on the seatbelt height adjuster (I use my normal seat belts on the road and the 2nd notch is too low for me really) You would then need longer uprights to compensate for the higher bar.

Any chance you could make such a modified bar for us 'taller folks'?

Dan

wrighty338 21 July 2010 08:35 AM

Dan, once these are gone i arnt even sure we will be making anymore to be honest mate.

alex_00s 21 July 2010 08:17 PM

Thats a shame Jon, I wont be able to get involved on this gb... altho this whole harness set up is sumin I do want in the future.

Dan - more pics would be great, yours do look sexy! ;)
