seats and harness mounting!








i have mounted the seats to the bases with 8 m6 bolts and mounted the seats to through bottom chassis mounts with 4 x 10mm bolts in each seat! secured in place by 10mm nyloc nuts and washers on the underside of the car, the seats needed mounting at the correct height so that the upper harness mounts are the same height as the holes in the rear of the seat!



the 4 point harnesses then just clipped on to the eye bolts, and the end result is looking good! the seats are a second hand westfield race seat which have a few tears in the side bolsters but i will re trim after IVA.

the lower harness mounts were also eye bolts,but they were bolted through the mounting brackets pre welded to chassis inbto the load spreading harness mounting plates on the underside of the brackets.these give a very strong fixing in the event of a crash
