im sorry but im getting impatient waiting for a reply on help zone and i want at least 1 fitted today before i go back to work.

Right. Ive got cobra monacos and cobra subframes both brand new. After taking the passenger seat out i came to wonder hows this going to work as im not going to be using harnesses at the present, just normal seatbelt.

so am i able to take the tensioner off and put it on the new subframe or do i have to try and fit the seats to the vauxhall subframe.

i dont want to run harnesses yet as me mates will be in the back so harnesses will be in the way so i just want to use standard seat belts.

how can i overcome this?

it could do but its all connected to the compression spring isnt it as theres a pipe running underneath the seat which goes to the compression spring which is why i dont just want to take the buckle off and let that go off.
