I'm importing these from Sparco USA but to get the price down for a group buy need ten at a time. Any questions then let me know, they are easy to install and remove, just bolt to existing seat belt mounts. Can run harnesses without fitting a full cage and they have a specific fitment for an E30, grey or silver finish.

Thanks Andy 07866256713

Looks pretty cool!
A way of fitting harnesses without having straps all over your back seats :roll:

Also would have the double function of small kids jumping back abd forward between the front seats :D

America has the biggest claim / blame culture in the world and as this is where they are made and sold, having been developed by a major corporation involved in global motorsport then I think the safety issues are covered. Probably as strong as a full cage harness bar as it pics up on all of the standard manufacturers seat belt mounting points. Saying that, they haven't given me any data on them, let alone shipping costs / dates, so I'm still waiting to evaluate their worth once I get one in my hands / car. Cheers, Andy

Looks like 4 door/touring owners will be OK!


Also a great way to mount a camcorder! winkeye

If your car is going to be creating a force to throw a rear seat passenger into the bar, I think the bar would be the least of the worries!

It would certainly teach them to put a seatbelt on next time. :mad:

Sparco won't ship these to the UK for me, they won't even quote me a price. Next option is for when someone is next in the states to actually talk to them or a supplier face to face and work something out, but I don't think I'll be in America until next year on holiday. So not likely to happen soon I'm afraid. Cheers, Andy
