I have just about plucked up the currage to cut the holes in my standard seats ready for harnesses. I have seen a few posts that I have read with people using the msar grommets and a few saying the corbeau ones. There seems quite a big difference in the price and wondered if anyone had used the corbeau ones, and which ones were best suited for our seats also I have tried to look at the guid on msar and it only shows me one page!! chinky chinky

msar also has the added bolts to make a harness fit properly. there should be a video on the MSAR site explaining things as well, plus search for a guide on seat cut outs. google search for: set cut outs site:www.vx220.org.uk chinky chinky

I didnt get any bolts with mine just the grommets, cut the seat out and clip them in place. push harness shoulder straps through hole and attach to bar, job done. Then just sort out the lap straps.

Yep.Probably would of bought the cheaper ones if id seen them. Its only a couple of cheap bits of plastic that are sold overprice. Just buy atoms if i were you.

When you do it measure twice cut once and where long sleeves, mask and goggles. I started off with glasses and soon realised i needed goggles, its a horrible job!
