As they are then harnesses will go tight and pull you downwards into your seat potentially breaking your back :-/

Sorry to put a dampener on things, Car looks really good though
I think the wheels would look awesome anthracite

looking to get 2 sparco 3points in black will probably find an new mounting after,
i was cold and that hole was there they were always on the old seatbelt holes on the rear bench but the floor covered them up , they were originaly to the front seat belt mounts at the bottem i was like WTF,

i would love a rear cage to put them round but im too cheap to buy one brand new, and decided the rear barce wouldnt be strong/safe enough


i think the wheels look gay in anthracite, know a geezer who did the whole dark theme but never liked his, and he copyed everything i did




if these fail

on the 4 point harness the 2 strapps should both go to seperate bolts, and only welded in bars should be used for safe point to mount harness strapps not the bolt on versions. car coming on nice tho mate i like the black harness idea
