usually when i see these belts. there are no rear seats. and also it looks like there isnt anything keeping it from flying off the two shoulder sides.

usually its only on these style seats.

ok, he could have ATLEAST put them thru the middle headrest bars, however he shoulden't be running harnesses on a stock seat, they are made to collapse in the event of a crash/rollover, so harnesses arn't the best thing to use on a stock seat (i should know, i've used them myself on a stock seat. A bucket is more of a wiser option to use harnesses with, however they should be used with a cage/harness bar.

Whats wrong with Spoon calipers and steel braided lines. I'm not being sarcastic, I would really like to know.

I wondered the same thing, especially after I just put Motul fluids everywhere! however I think he was referring to upgrading all the stopping power on the car and then riding on 49.99 Walmart special tires, which ultimately limit how all your brake upgrades will work.

Nothing wrong with Spoon Calipers,Motul or Elf fluids,or high end brake pads....my point was why put all the best and have ---- tires to be the last part of your brake system! tires count as well....just like 4 or 5 point harnesses...why have em if you don't put them in properly..waste of money and a risky situation just waiting to happen..sorry for being vague! Scotty2H understood.

can someone explain what's wrong in that pic? I don't see it. the top point is mounted to the top point of the rear belt, so we know it's strong and it's not on an angle that it would cause spinal compression in the event of an accident.
