David,
Did you get the racing Sabelt ones from Bill Adair? The ones with the aircraft style release? If so the don't have an E mark.
I *think* the SVA are supposed to pass an E equivilant seatbelt (ie professionally made to a similar or higher standard).
I have these and I'm getting the loan of a mates belts for the test just in case the SVA get stroppy.
Cheers
Alister

I bolted mine direct to the floor. I'm only building this car for 1 person to drive! I made sure I was comfy and that's where I put it!
You need to watch if you're putting runners on it you don't have the seats too high. A big part of these cars (IMHO) is that you sit
really low, much higher and it would feel like you could fall out!
