A harness will have no give in it and the seat is not strong enough to handle this, so what will end up happening is the back of the seat giving way during an accident and it will take you with it, which means you will most likely be in a wheel chair (at best) for the rest of your life.


is that really correct? surely if the seat gives way then that means that your body has at least got somewhere to go and isnt crushed. If it didnt give way (ie you had a bucket seat) are you saying tha you would be crushed even more?

The standard seat pretensioner can deal with the strain so bolting it to the same place should be fine. It just depends where you are attaching the uppers! Obviously attaching those to the base of the seat is a big nono and i presume thats what youre talking about but putting them onto the rear seat mount things should be much better. Although its pulling you down... but thats another argument!
