steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Car came with harnesses so had to buy a full seatbelt setup as I'm changing it back to them. Have it all sourced but need help with fitting them. I know how to fit the seatbelt buckle to the seat and the triangle bit to the B pillar and if I'm not mistaken the seatbelt reel/tensioner thing bolts in behind the rear doorcard? But the main problem is the loop part that goes between the door and the seat, where does it bolt to? Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 in mine mate there is a bar to loop it through that is bolted to the car if that makes any senselewis Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Yeah only problem is I can only find 1 bolt hole (my harness currently is bolted in here) but just been told the other 1 is further back near the rear bench and there is a slit in the carpet so will have to look for it lol. Also I think the seats may be sold just waiting for payment. Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 pretty sure mate the bar slots in one of the holes then bolts on the other to hold it in place good news about the seats fella i would of loved them but funds this month have been spent lol Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Parts I want always seem to come up cheap when I'm skint haha. Never know the deal may fall through and they could still be for sale. thought I would have had more interest at £300 delivered, only 4-5 people have offered me things for them and only 1 was cash lol. Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 its a bargain mate i have asked just about everyone i know if i can borrow the moneys lol but there all skint like me i hope it dont fall through for you mate Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 lol I tend to use bank of mum for loans and if she's not lending then it's bank of gran haha. If i held out I think I could get 400 but need standard seats badly as it's a nightmare betting a baby in and out the back with them + harnesses. Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 yeah i bet it is mate i been searching for evo 8 seats but now i have seen yours i want them bad even if i have to buy them new one at a time Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Well there £250 each new and the runners are £30 each so that's £560 before you even make subframes up. Kicking myself for selling the lot so cheap but needs must Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 yeah i know mate it will be either them or evo ones i had evo 8's in my last v how comfy are the omp ones ?? Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 There really comfy and hold you in the seat well. There a fair bit bigger than the standard seats aswell (width and height) and combined with harnesses are awesome seats imo. Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 i like the fact there different too as evo seats are a common upgrade your the first person i have seen with the omp seats worth the extra cash to get them i think lol Quote
steve-gers Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Each to there own most people do seem to put in scooby wrx seats or evo seats though. I used to have a set of recaro's in my old corsa redtop and they were the comfiest seats I've ever sat in. They had been sent away along with the rear bench and front + rear doorcards for a retrim by recaro and looked awesome. Quote
steve-gers Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Aye they were really nice but a full recaro leather interior is wasted in a corsa tbh lol. Still kinda miss it though even though it was a moneypit haha. Quote
200bhp starlet Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 I know what you mean dude I've had a couple of pug 205 gti's they were money pits but I loved them lol Quote
steve-gers Posted March 7, 2012 Author Posted March 7, 2012 Got the seatbelts delivered on monday and just went to fit them just now but there completely the wrong ones. The part that goes into the rear doorcard is massive compared to mine but came out of a quadlight aswell? Any ideas? Quote
5T4R7ET N/A Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 you have the remove the supports that goes under the seat. big black braket that has four big bolts and two small ones.put a pic up if you cant do it. Quote
steve-gers Posted March 7, 2012 Author Posted March 7, 2012 I have got the rear doorcard off but the actual seatbelt reel/tensioner thing is completely different to the one that should be on my car (will post a picture up later or tomorrow) Quote
steve-gers Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Been busy lately so just got round to this. Ok pulled off the rear doorcard to fit seatbelt tension/reel thing and my old one was still in place (belt had been cut off) so removed that but the one I bought is totally different (pic below) anyone got any idea why? Quote

steve-gers Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 Ah i see. The other problem I have is that there is only 1 threaded hole on my car for the rail that the loop part of the seatbelt bolts into? Quote
