ZeppoJeff Posted June 15, 2016 Posted June 15, 2016 Looking for some info when installing my harnesses. Anyone have any idea what the bolt size of the lower seatbelt mount is? Wanting to install eye bolts so the lap strap can snap on at there Quote
harryjackson Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Just use the OEM bolt mate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

harryjackson Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Oh sorry, I just replaced it with a harness eyebolt. They're the same thread pitch buddy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
harryjackson Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Hardest part is where to chose to mount the eyebolt and plate on the trans tunnel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
StevoD Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 most legit harnesses come with eye bolts but im also 90% sure a modern car seat belt bolts are interchange as when i order my luke ones i got eye bolt with them and they fit without me giving car details Quote

ZeppoJeff Posted June 16, 2016 Author Posted June 16, 2016 See I don't think u get eye bolts with the takata harnesses. So I assume it's just a 7/16" unf then. Anyone any idea of the length? I would check myself but I'm away with work at the moment. Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I've been looking on there and there is 4 different lengths to choose from for the single bolts. For the bolt and plate that's one single length Quote
harryjackson Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Just measure the length of the OEM bolt and match it as close as possible mate Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Just remind me where the stock seat belt buckle is bolted to Completely different with stock seat belts. They're designed in a certain way hence why every road going car has them. And also you're securing a buckle not a complete independent lap strap. Seen various harness companies say not to mount to seat bracket. Hence why they sell the load spreading plates and eyelets.

StevoD Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Explain to me how this is any more dangerous than mounting it to tunnel next to it ? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v212/hawyziee13/tak3.jpg Where do you have the shoulder harnesses mounted ? Quote
StevoD Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) Also I guess these instructions of mount lap belt to the rail must be wrong too? or this one Existing anchor points well in the Z that is on the subframe? Page 42 from Scroth, Eye bolts for snap on brackets May be installed either to another mounting point provided by the car manufacture. http://www.msar.co.uk/pdf/UsersGuideRacingHarness.pdf Edited June 16, 2016 by StevoD Quote
harryjackson Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Urmmmmmm, this image tells your they're anchored to the car floor...😂 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
