Default Seat belt tensioner

My business partner has a (?) stainless steel tensioner attatched to the lap part of his seat belts in his C4S. I've driven with it and it does seem to give greater body stability, i.e. it stops your bum sliding round the seat! LOL
He says he got it from Mid America, but I cant find it on their website.
Anybody got any suggestions?

Go to Toys Are Us and get the seat belt lock for child safety seats. They work on the same principle and are a lot cheaper. Plus most autoX groups like SCCA don't allow the other ones like the CG Lock, but they allow the child safety seat locks.

On the other hand, if you are just doing DEs, they typically will accept the CG Lock, and you can get it at Paragon at: http://www.paragon-products.com/product_p/cg-lock.htm

I got it. It works well. Not as well as a harness, but then, it's like only $35.00 so you get what you pay for, a harness and mount points is upwards of $200, so I've got no complaints. I figure that it'll hold me until I do the harness.

Thanks guys
I dont intend racing, DE's or other stuff like that. My car is too expensive and too precious.
I do however negotiate at least 12 roundabouts whilst commuting, some are on high speed zones on the highway and I dont like slowing down all that much at 3AM on the way home. LOL

Sounds to me like you really need a few DE's to learn how to do handle those roundabouts better perhaps?
