4 point harness with eyebolt AND standard bolt fittings
guyschofield - 9/9/20 at 07:08 PM

Hi folks,

I'm trying to find a pair of 4 point harnesses for a Sylva Vectis with snap on hooks for eyebolts at the top/shoulders but flat plates for straight bolts at the bottom/lap straps (the seat space is very narrow so eyebolts won't fit in the bottoms pair of threads).

Have any Caterham/Westfield/Locost/Sylva/Fury owners bought anything like that recently?
I remember finding some Willans ones online last year and thinking 'I'll get those in a bit' but now can't find any anywhere!

Cheers!
Guy

Actually, cancel that, I've just found the Willans supersport ones! Unless anyone knows of any nicer ones?

TRS will make you whatever you need.

Thanks TimC, I didn't know that. That's good to know!

Cheers,

Maybe these? https://www.schroth.com/en/segments/racing/products/details/show/westfield-ii.html

Alternatively I have these on my Striker https://www.schroth.com/en/segments/racing/products/details/show/profi-ii-asm-flexi-belt.html with the flexi belt system you can change them from 'pull up' to 'pull down' adjustment on the lap belts as suits your car better and you can then also buy bolt in plates for the lap belts separately and change them yourself. You also have full adjustment over all belt lengths on the flexi system which is useful on all Sylva design cars.

The asm system on these belts is supposed to be better in a frontal impact unless you have a crutch strap https://www.schroth.com/en/segments/racing/service/technologie-tech-tip/schroth-asm.html although you should not use asm belts when you have a FHR device (which I now have). Fortunately I have now managed to get hold of a single shoulder strap without asm so I can swap it over when using my FHR

Hope that makes sense
