talondsm24 · Sep 29, 2009

found a pair of them on ebay for $88.88 free shipping. i know there off brand but are they ok for me? i plan on going to the strip every once and a while but not every weekend. i just need some cheap harnesses cause the stock belts wont work with my new racing seats so should i get these?

I personally wouldn't go with something cheap especially when it comes to safety. I would spend the extra cash for a reputable harness company that you know will keep you in your seat if something happens.

regulator213 · Sep 29, 2009

with cars you almost always get what you pay for...and killa dsm is right, you dont want to chance it with something concerning safety. Plus you'll regret not spending the extra cash in the long run especially since its going to be something you use everyday. If you spend the extra money you will be glad you did. I know i always am.

I would go with the G force harnesses from like summit or jegs. I think they are like 70 each and actually have the SFI cert.

Those wont be legal to run at the track if you NEED harnesses...

Cheap safety equipment isnt something i would ever use when it comes to my life....

dude why do you want SPOON harnesses in a DSM? leave the kitchen utensils to the HONDA guys. I've had Weapon R harnesses and Yonaka harnesses and they felt really nice and sturdy and come with a badge like the Gforce belts to tell you when they're out of "inspection" or whatever it is.

DO NOT waste your money on those!! A friend of a friend got those same ones and they are JUNK!

Kingnc02 · Sep 30, 2009

yea i would get a trusted name brand seenig how youre replacing a major safety feature! aslo think about mounting i know sparco has a harness bar, i would also check that out. they are a direct bolt in to the stock seatbelt torx bolts.

talondsm24 · Sep 30, 2009

i figured this would be the response i got. what about netami 4 pt. harnesses with camlock. i found some locally for $80 brand new for the pair. i also found some sparco tourismo 4 pt. with the cheaper no camlock belt design for $100 for the pair

I must say i agree with the others. buyin 'off brand' or cheap versions of things is never a good idea. ESPECIALLY when it comes to safety. Also i've always had problem with cheap things from ebay. they never stand up to what the good product does. spend the extra money and get the good reliable stuff.

1995GSTEclipse · Sep 30, 2009

Kinda like condoms. If you had one brand by Justwanaphuk and one by Trojan or Durex at 4x the cost. Not like I know anything about this since I am 32 with 5 kids..

Doubleot · Sep 30, 2009

Humm...I don't think you want 5pt Camlocks on those man, Just get 4pt's and Definitely get reputable name ones. Someone on here was going to sell me a set of Corbeau's for 80 shipped look around.

talondsm24 · Sep 30, 2009

so should i get the set of sparco's for $100?

daren_p · Sep 30, 2009

Wow, DSM cheapness on a whole new level

Is skimping on one of the things that may save your life, really a good idea :confused:

If they are real I'd jump on that, If you don't I will.

talondsm24 · Oct 2, 2009

I picked them up last night. I have to find some "i" bolts or something to mount them to becuase they are the quick release ones not the direct bolt in, any suggestions?

Ebay, hardware store?

talondsm24 · Oct 2, 2009

hardware store doesnt carry them, automotive bolts like that have a higher pitch (threads per inch) and the hardware store doesnt carry welded eye bolts so they have a small space that would allow them to strighten out with any kind of impact. i tried ebay thinking there would be some but only found 1 guy selling them in the uk for 14.95 a peice

I have a place right by my house I get all of my things from. They carry ANY kind of fastener, bolt, screw, whatever you can think of.

Try calling/emailing Sparco, they should be able to get you some one way or another.

TurboATM · Oct 2, 2009

...are you going to use there everyday? and do you need cam locks for the track, i dont really know track rules that much.

i do know when i had camlocks, they got annoying really quick. I switched to 4 point belts with one buckle in the middle, not 3. And the girlfriend HATED the belts, but damn did she look good in them, ha

talondsm24 · Oct 2, 2009

Ihave the 4 points with the 1 buckle in the middle, not the camlock. i plan on using them every day, i hear they get annoyying but so do the damn auto belts since they dont work anyway. i found some on jegas and other sights like that for $5 a peice but thats still pretty pricy when you need 8 of them, so ill try sparco. hey 1995gst whats the place called? maybe i have one of them by me!

It's called "That Fastener Place"

Doubleot · Oct 3, 2009

Post a pic up when you get these installed. I'm a sucker for harness belts.
It is annoying but you feel like a totally different person when you get in em. Made me feel cool

toxicity883 · Oct 3, 2009

Watch out for the police, if you get a cop who hates everything or studies his traffic manual they'll ticket you because there not DOT certified....trust me. I had to pay a ticket for not wearing a seat belt when i had a harness on in my camaro needless to say i was a bit pissed.
