What do we reckon these will sell for and do you think its worth it??

plus how much will it cost to get a harness bar and harnesses?

cheers Ed

i thought that would be about right.

with my basic mechanical skills do we think it would be possible for me to change them over myself?

might wait for a s&s before attempting the harnesses etc...

Ed, sure you want harnesses?
I know Robin ditched his and Ali I think uses his standard belts.
Quite cool for that racing driver feel/look

Ed,
They should be a doddle to change.

Seats are reasonably easy to change, even with the roof on (note, pax seat comes out of drivers door and vice versa).

Best to do the harnesses at the same time (you need the seats out anyway). I'm not sure how difficult the harness bar is...

I have harnesses and lap belts. Harness for track and occasionally on the road, lap belts for day to day.

i definently want them, they were fantastic on track in jamies & scottys cars, i find those seats alot more comfortable too. will prob keep both sets of belts. does anyone know if robin still wants or has sold his bar and harnesses? cheers

Robin still has them last I heard.
I asked about them but not really compatible with my seats.

I think Dave Stanley is your man for info since I know he has just changed the seats in his Exige and regularly potters about with Harnesses

800ish quid was my guess too.

You don't need those.
What's wrong with yours?

He's discovered how comfortable my S1 seats are and now wants to change his...

mine are the touring seats/ non probax and no harness holes

You don't need Probax and harness holes to drive quick...

very true, but if things went pearshape would i not be better off with these?

£800 quid is a lot of driver training which would very much reduce the possibility of pearshapeness happening in the first instance.

Would probably help your laptime be something less

too
