ok, had buckets in my car for several months now

been after some harnesses (3 point) sparco ones

a few people think harnesses are worse then seatbelts in a crash (i doubt it concidering they are used in rally cars) but some say they only protect you more when used with a cage

ive heard show use cages can actually cause a lot more damage in a crash also

if u have harnesses, where are the fixing points located?

its a corsa, so im thinking the rear seatbelt points on the C pillar or the buckel points from the rear seats

will i be able to use them off the rear anti roll bar or cage when i get it

cheers

yeah, c pillars collapse in far too easily, i have one on the rear seatbelt mount, one on the side seatbelt mount by the door and one drilled into the tunnel behind the seat with a thick plate underneath to spread the load
as for cages causing more damage, thats rubbish, a properly fitted cage will strengthen your shell no end, as long as its a proper steel one, not just a pretty ally one
