Who can inform me about the Cobra seats?

Need some paper of confirmity with the sva rules or better wich states its e marked

Tks

I don't think seats need to be e marked. I don't have my copy of the SVA manual to hand, but some people make their own seats, and get through, so they would have e marks

Mhhits for the spanish SVA, sow i will need a paper that states that they would pass a e marking test or something like that.

anyone??

As humbug says it doesn't seem to be a requirement for UK SVA. Guess you have two options open if you need an e mark or equivalent.

1. Use a production car seat - Lotus Elise has some nice narrow seats that may fit.

2. Use a seat marked as FIA approved. If it's good enough for motorsport it should be arguable that it's more than good enough for the road. Many of the cobra seats are FIA approved and cobra should be able to provide a letter confirming the FIA status of the seat you have.

i think i try to talk to cobra,

for a paper that states that my seat will pas a homologation test either with car or pure for the seat (e marking)

dunno if they gonna aks me but i better have something

Tks

the seller here on the forum could he help me? tryed to find the topic but could find it..

I'd guess that would be 'cashy' who you bought them off.

http://www.cobraseats.com/ have a page where you can ask them questions, sure you wouldn't be the first to ask them.

i mailded them (no answer yet) but what i found whas that my seat isnt listed?????

i brought it true luego in ther old days..

maybe i should just buy one adjustable ones..

we ill see..

here in spain the rules are a bit strange a homologated Sabelt ones don't pass

Should be 3point with spring..

Tks

a harness does not pass? i cannot believe that! so they make me put a dodgy three point seat belt (in a car which arguably resembles a sardine can) when a harness is more than proven to be far safer?! i refuse to accept that. i will most definitely put a harness on mine and if they complain, i shall argue 'till they accept.

i shall never surrender! i'll change spain's cynical and absurd law system one law at a time.

you just put on what they say, later the bits you don't like fell of..

he even told me that he letted fitted the harness ones and they didn't complain...

thats whats told to me

Tks
