My daughter's gotta have fun too ya know. Recaro Child Start Seat

 

I love it. Mitsubishi should offer that as an option.

 

that is really, really cool...
almost makes me want to have children, almost....

 

Sweeeeeeeeeeet

 

:laugh: not me!!!!

 

those look comfy

 

The only thing missing on that little seat are the slots for the 5 point harness.

 

the slots for the five point harness aren't on the real seat either

 

Lol those look tight hahha

 

Um, yes they are .

 

Cutouts in our Evolution seat backs are for FOUR point harnesses.

Five point would require a hole in the seat bottom cushion (ala the BMW e36 M3 seats). We don't appear to have that.

Four point (my former 2000 328i)


Five point (my current 1995 M3)

 

We've already talked about the fact that you don't need a hole in the bottom cushion to have a spot for the 5th point. It can go around the front of the cushion and connect under the seat. Some not so intense race seats do it that way. I'm guessing the seats coming with our Evo's are the same way.

 

Yes, you do need a hole. Sending it around the front is NO GOOD.

For an anti-sub belt to work properly it has to be located close to the driver's crotch. If the anti-submarine strap is not very very close to your body, it is very ineffective.

Sending it over the front of the seat cushion will still allow your body to slide down and/or the belts to ride up in a collision.

Either you should be prepared to cut a hole in your stock seat, or you should use a four point harness. Mounting the anti-sub strap over the front of the seat reduces the effectiveness to the point that its pretty much just for show...

 

So jedinite, from what you're saying, I think wearing a cup would with a 5 point harness would be a good idea, otherwise, hit the brakes and ouch!

 

LoL... that's right.

Just picture it. The strap between your legs is four inches away from your body (or how ever far the front of the seat is from your crotch when you're pushed all the way back in the seat). Big frontal impact and your body heads down four inches towards the floorboards... you're singing soprano for the rest of your life...
