Stu Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Be careful, the way you've got those harnesses hooked up could damage your back in a crash. Really? Where else do they attach? Do you mean where the rear section is bolted? You want the anchor point to be at shoulder level or higher really otherwise compression of the spine can occur.

LiamGTR Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 If you're got a rear strut brace attatch it to that? That seems to be pretty high and seen alot of stripped out cars doing it (not saying it's right, just going by what i've seen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be pretty high and seen alot of stripped out cars doing it (not saying it's right, just going by what i've seen) No rear strut, but probably somewhere else to attach, IF i stripped it out. Will probably change back to normal belts if im honest - these are already becoming a bit of a pain in the arse lol. Will leave in for a while though i expect, they do look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee grout Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Harnessess look really good. I got silver ones with black buckets and they look relly good. Why not attach the straps to the upper section where the rear seatbelt is attached in the c pillar! Perfect angle plus if youve got harnessess, because of the way they fit in the car your not allowed rear passengers (unless they fancy getting a chopped off head or mega wedgy!) so you've no need to keep rear seatbelts.

TC-DNB Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 (edited) Looking really good, some nice individual touches Thanks Mark...I do like how its come on Nice car mate i LOVE the colour of it , will have that flock with you shortly Yea is a nice green and thanks mate Harnessess look really good. I got silver ones with black buckets and they look relly good. Why not attach the straps to the upper section where the rear seatbelt is attached in the c pillar! Perfect angle plus if youve got harnessess, because of the way they fit in the car your not allowed rear passengers (unless they fancy getting a chopped off head or mega wedgy!) so you've no need to keep rear seatbelts. Not a bad idea at all, if i decide to keep i will do this, if not ill put them up for sale or keep for a future project Edit: not a good idea, I've got a cabriolet. The rear seat belts come from the rear seats, no pillar as roof comes down. Lol Edited November 3, 2010 by TC-DNB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC-DNB Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Nothing major to report, still got the last bit of dash flocking to fit and have sorted my DVD player which i bought from a member on here. Just realised i dont have a day time photo but will grab one soon! Heres a couple of pics for you though... http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/Escort%20Cabriolet/IMG_0612.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/Escort%20Cabriolet/IMG_0613.jpg Actually a pretty good buy for £70 delivered and is a nice interior addition. Heres my cabby earlier this morning, now has about 2-3 more inches on it! http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/Escort%20Cabriolet/IMG_0623.jpg That is all...
