As joe says...

It looks like a fork, you just pop it in so the two prongs stop it going off.

The red clip is just clipped to the end of the tensioner, you unclip it and put it into the slot provided like you see in the pic

Also, they aren't explosive, there's just a spring under tension in there that packs a punch if you set it off.


will that clip aleady be as its shown in the picture or will i have to insert it myself?

No , I have seatbelts with my corbeaus :)

Think harnesses are pointless tbh as they never seem to be worn the right way

so can i still mount the original buckle to the seat base frame when i get it?
the seats are called Raceland and have an outline of a fox as the symbol? but i don't know what abses i need yet so i'll have to do my homework!!!

Yeah, you can use the original buckles/seatbelts/tensioners with the new sub frame. Id go with harnesses myself tho and lose the lot!

Buckets and seatbelts dont really work too well cos of the shape of the seat. I managed ok in my old Corsa with buckets and harnesses.

your remove them when you remove the subframsn anyway, they can be disbaled by inserting the clip into the end of them, if you remove the trim around it all will become apprent
