The car looks great, you have the same lip as me too!! 8-)

You should really get a cage fitted if you are using that seat and harness. If you roll the car and the roof comes in there is potential for head and neck injuries as you are held upright. A standard seat allows you move out of the way.

Also your harness looks to be improperly fitted. The angle that the shoulder straps go down is too steep, this risks injury in a crash.

Thanks Nath :D

Ooh didn't think of that Merl :?
I have got plans for a cage now, haven't looked much into it yet but is there any where in the UK does bolt ins for reasonable price?
I was just going to put a half cage in the rear to keep the front abit more civilised for daily use..

On the harness angle, is there any other places that I can just screw harness eyes in? I really don't like harness bars but if I have to go that route I suppose I will..

There's no off the shelf job no. You'll have to go custom.

There was talk of a group-buy once, but it never took off, understandably.

Blue neon is gone now, randomly found it undertake sub and thought I'd zip tie it there, this was a bad move obviously couldn't see fack all. Through the back at night :lol:

Ahh yeah it's got a sun strip now too but it's too small imo I want a big touring car style one :twisted:
