Ye i know exactly what u mean, so i could just use the bolt holes that were used as the rear seat belt mounts? also im going to use 4 point harnesses so can the two shoulder straps be fixed together on one mounting point? because there isn't enough fixing holes is there? :S Sorry for all the questions. I appretiate the help.
-
as iv seen in other cars the bar is bolted to the turrets. so it should be quite strong. but i can see why the fixing points could be safer. thanks for the link ill check it out.

most of the time its down to the make of the tyre and the tread pattern. i had some expensive avon's on and never aqua plained but then when i changed wheels it was duran budget tyres and was terrible in the water.

hey, im wanting to get some harness seat belts for my car, i want to loop them round my rear stress bar but all harnesses iv looked at have fixing brackets on the end for bolting down. Does anyone know what type of harnesses i need? Or is there a way of taking the fixing bracket of the end so i can loop it round? HELP!! Thanks.

its the complete frame with slider built onto it, i got subframes from this company... http://www.rsmmotorsport.co.uk/products/productdetail.aspx?pid=383 they are quite expensive but they are very strong, they use the same front centre fixing on the floor and you slide the sides into frames built into the car at the sides and put bolts through. you can either choose a subframe with a slider on it for adjusting the seat forwards and backwards or just get a solid one.
