Default Classic interior chassis brace

Chrome interior chassis brace which fits behind the front seats and crosses the tunnel bracing the sills. Fairly dramatic change in chassis stiffness and roll when fitted. Unfortunately it is not allowed in the sprint class I run in because of it's advantages. No impact on rear seat passengers or movement of front seats, runs along the floor. Attaches using the bottom seat belt bolts.

£90 collected from Coventry, postage circa £10 for UK

How can it fit the seatbelt bolts given the tiny holes in the bracket ?

They are larger than they look in the picture. It may not be the seatbelt bolts then but its two bolts at the bottom of the B pillar so no drilling or anything required.

Good man, I removed it a couple of months ago and was going to go and look at it to try and verify.

They are a great job and it would have stayed in my car had it not been for competing in the sprints.

Daft question:
I see it adjusts in the middle. Do you adjust it push out or pull in?
How tight does it want to be?
If nothing else, free bump and GLWS

Any stickers or markings to identify who makes it?
