TAG 25 1 Cars Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Hi there everyone, I am about to crack on with fitting an OMP roll cage, bucket seats and harnesses to my 205. I was wondering where everyone is mounting their eyebolts for the harnesses? I would like to leave space on the tunnel for fitting a road rally-style hydraulic handbrake in the future, so I'm particularly interested in how the road rally boys mount theirs. I also have a few more questions: I don't plan on stage rallying any time soon, but it seems to make sense to fit the cage and harnesses to stage rally spec, rather than change my mind in the future and having to re-weld everything. My OMP cage mounts to the rear beam mounts, will i need to weld 3mm plate on these too? Also, when I looked at the MSA blue book, i could find specifics for the cage mounts, but could not find them for the harness mounts. At the moment I have a set of Grayston harness mounts like those shown here; Is there a certain spec that the harness mounts need to meet? I see that the FIA ones are 65mm x 65mm for example. Thanks very much, Tom Edited February 7, 2015 by TAG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biggles 65 Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) If they're in the right place, put the eye bolts in the OE mounts. If not, the Grayston ones are fine, just be sensible where you put them - not in the middle of a big flat sheet for example. If your cage has a harness bar, I'd use that for the shoulder straps. If not, mount the shoulder straps with as shallow an angle from the horizontal you can get away with. Edited February 7, 2015 by Biggles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesegrater 43 1 Cars Posted February 7, 2015 If it helps I'm currently stripping a car that had harnesses, 2 eyelets in the standard rear seat clasp holes, two in the upper rear quarters, two in the outer front lower seat belt mounts and one additionally welded into the tunnel behind the handbrake lever assembly.
