    Default New seat and belts in the REX!

    This is the new Momo Start 2007 seat, and my Mugen belts. I know they are not for real Mugen, but they are to me!

    Nice seats man, Takata harness is the way to go, but their probably the most expensive harness you can get. Lol Sparco are really nice too.

    seat belts/harnesses are there to help protect you and save your life. if you're going to replace the oem's, then you better be replacing them for something better.

    especcially not for some half-ass knock off mugen crap that you probably aren't even attaching correctly to begin with

    The harness is too small, get wider belts. Takata is NOT the best wtf LOL...Sparco is nice, GFORCE, real race car harness are CHEAP. And wide. Go into detail you can go for hours how to mount a harness, etc.

    Everyone is making fun of the Ebay harnesses but I promise you as long as they're at least decently mounted they WILL perform better than the stock CRX seat belts. Neither of my stock door mounted seat belts lock under 98% of conditions; they're useless. I could sit there & pull at it at different speeds all day & it might lock 1/100 times.

    So anyway, I rock some Ebay harnesses too. If the G-Force are actually affordable then I will consider but Takata and Sparco harnesses (prices) are out of the question.

    Yes they are! I would not just throw them in there. I don't do any serious racing or anything. Its just to play around with a little.

    And also I didn't want a 16inch wide belt to do formula 1 racing with. I just wanted these for what little bit of stuff I do. I drive this car just about every day back and forth to work 60 miles. And I didn't want those huge belts! I mounted these correctly, I have been working on cars for 6 years so I know how to bolt up some belts.

    Well first I had them bolted up with the side belts. Then I changed it, and have them around the rear strut bar. But I am just doin that temporary because I am gonna drill holes in the body and bolt them up behind the seat to the floor.

    Yeah I really didn't like them bolted up to the side belts because they were hard to adjust. And then it's pretty ghetto on the bar! It will get changed soon. How do you have yours? I haven't paid them any attention at the meets.
