really? went by feel? i dunno if i want to risk my life by torquing harness bolts by feel. Im guessing the torque spec for the stock seatbelt bolts would work. i guess i just like having the peace of mind when it comes to torque specs on critical parts such as seat belts or brakes, suspension, etc.

 

Risk your life? You tighten a bolt - how difficult can it be? If you're worried, put some Loctite on the threads when you put it back together. If you're that worried about it, then skip the harness install. The stock seat belts are ultimately safer than the harness in a crash, and I would not recommend them for street driving.

 

if you can't guesstimate a torque for something like that, you honestly should not be working on a car.

Thats my honest opinion. Most of it is common sense. if you broke it loose with x amount of force, that same amount would hold it back when refastened.

 

I ike to torque things as much as possible but on this installation I just payed close attention to how much torque I "felt" breaking the OEM bolt loose, and applied at least as much tightening it back down.

 

by any chance can the OP update links to the pictures?

 

I'd also really appreciate this. I'm going to be ordering these very soon and would like to have the pictures...

 

yea bump. i can't see the pics..

 

This is what I ordered & installed if interested.......Its the Schroth street harness that uses the inertia reel......Stock belts have been disconnected & w/ no SRS light......Peace

this is one amazing thread , but there are no pics ...... !

 

I can take some pics - anything specific you're interested in?

 

sorry to ask but i just came up on some used(minty) takata long harnesses for a dam good price and was wondering if i needed to use the eye bolt in the rear of my 9mr or kan i hook them straight to my factory car seat (lower side)anchors? thanx..

 

Anyone try one of those CV locks?

 

Thanks for the instructions

 

for these installs, on the driver's side, where does the lower right side install into? the oem seatbelt buckle?

 

bump for install advice/where to put in the right lower strap for the driver's side
