pub mot for nova's ftw lol
I beleive the MOT requirement is for the belts to be E marked, they do not specify the type of buckle/release mechanism.
I am pretty sure that the Megane R26R has a lever style buckle and that is a road going car
****, should've got fancy buckles for mine then :(
they are mega :cool:
Quote from Megane Sport about the R26R harnesses, effectively yes they are buckle style and road legal as Renault got them E marked but there are no 'off the shelf' E marked buckle style harnesses. But semantics here, it is not the buckle itself that is not road legal, it is the lack of E marking.
"Thanks guys. I am pondering upon the legalities. The R26R harnesses were homologated for road use, other harnesses with the aricraft style buckle are not E marked and therefore not road legal. The road approved ones with seatbelt style latches are NAF.
Would it work to fit .R harnesses to another car and maintain legal status?"
just looked and there are none of these 'e' markings on them, ****.

no nothing exciting lol Just a pair of switches to test.
Can you not just leave the standard seat belt stuff in for mot? Would be much easier to drive on the road I'd imagine, especially at junctions when you need to shift about in the seat!Quote:

but you're right, they are a ball ache on the road.
There "meant" to, but if you take the car to an MOT station and the guys clued up but not Anel, he will realise these are better then a normal seat belt! lolQuote:
