I've never had any problems throughout ownership of my FIA harnesses with aircraft buckles... how odd...
In fact, never even heard that they're not road legal... police aren't aware in any case lol
Scott you might as well take it for MOT with the aircraft type, worst case is they notice and fail it, which'll give you 10days to find some normal ones and fit them for a free re-test.
What he said/\
The aircraft style ones are not road legal.
Because of them not having an industry standard type buckle iirc
Hey Oli,
I'm just about to order some fibreglass wings, due to me wanting my car lower on the whole, but my front arches won't let me...
Just a couple of questions, I intend on modifying them to accomodate standard indicators.
Will I need to add spacers in order for my 6J x 15 et49 wheels not to look odd? (ie sitting too far in) however, adding too much of a spacer will defeat the object of me getting them in the first place... ie: reduce rubbage
Just wanted your take on it, I presume you run spacers on your front wheels, but what are the sizes of your wheels? (width & offset)
Thanks in advance
Olly
tbh ols best thing to do would be have your steels ones flared out and re-painted
Likewise, I'd imagine dropping the ride height & adding spacers to the wheels will have a negative effect too. Steering will lose its accuracy.
3rded. Olli D can get away with it because his car is slow lol. You have a proper engine in yours, therefore I would flare your steel wings as mentioned. I plan to do mine at some point next winter as well.
lol @ proper engine
I'll look into some serious flairing, as I'd like it to go lower somewhat at the front :)
