You need to loop the loose end of the harness back over and through the clip one more time so it points toward the back. Otherwise it could slip in a severe accident. Go back and check the installation instructions for the belts. There should be a diagram there. If not, go to www.hmsmotorsports.com and download the installation instructions for one fo the Schroth harnesses. They are very detailed. Improperly installed race harnesses can be less safet that standard street belts!

Nice project but I don't think your lovely wife will enjoy scraping her legs on that big FE, I know mind didn't.

BTW you had her present the car at first, now why not have her show us the mods

When I go to the track I remove the bottom pad so I can get even lower in the seat - feels fine - like sitting in a Shifter Kart seat. You may want try since you are 6'2".

Didn't notice you had responded....

Just tell her; "sorry sweety but it's the only picture I had, at least you didn't end up on a giant billboard like Ellen Griswold in Family vacation"

If it gets me a couple more inches, I'm definitely doing your setup.

I'm interested in the net weight added or lost from car in process of Clubsport conversion.

Do you have a break down of the weights of old and new seats, roll bar parts etc. and what does car weigh now?
