Racing Bucket Seats & harness - Toyota Yaris Forums

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 06:56 PM

So, Here is my new Bucket seats installed. It's my secret project I've been working on this month.

Here it is in all its glory,

ChargeSpeed Sport Bucket Seats (Everyone has Brides or Sparcos, But not ChargeSpeed! DIRECTLY FROM OSAKA! If you got the dough for recaro that's awesome seats but I don't think a grand for a seat is worth it on a yaris....maybe on my next car ;))

Takata 4 point Harness

This is how I mounted it to the stock rails.

Whoops how did my fat ass get in there.

sorry small pics but its alright i guess hahaha

Tamago · 05-13-2009, 06:57 PM

where are the shoulder straps mounted? don't drive around with that harness latched dude, for your own safety

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 07:07 PM

It's latched to the eyebolt where the Torque Screw would go. I had to buy new Eye bolts for it. Yea Thats just picture yesterday when It was all messy I gotta clean it out today.

munky wurks

mikenacarato · 05-13-2009, 07:40 PM

it looks like the harness angle is too low. your at risk of neck injury if you get in an accident. other than that...very nice setup! how did u use the stock rails?

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 07:42 PM

added bigger pictures hehehe

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 07:43 PM

L brackets from 1/2' galvanized steel.

The harness is well within the limits hehehe its all g. its just snagged on my tool box right now hahaha

mikenacarato · 05-13-2009, 07:45 PM

ok good. 45-90 degree is key :)

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 07:48 PM

I pulled off the rail from the stock seats. Wasn't hard just a bunch of bolts. I reused the bolts to attach the L brackets on to the rail again.

fuji · 05-13-2009, 07:49 PM

Can a seat like this be used with the normal seat belt?

gwasabi · 05-13-2009, 07:50 PM

YES! I actually still have my stock seatbelts in JUST incase I ever need to use em

mikenacarato · 05-13-2009, 07:53 PM

any chance of a close up of the rails? :)

blacksandiegovitz · 05-13-2009, 08:06 PM

Nice man , but whats up with the stock passenger seat ???

Tamago · 05-13-2009, 10:21 PM

not one bit of that looks safe.

dee dee dee, not my problem!

awdblazer · 05-13-2009, 10:33 PM

i wouldnt run harnesses if i didnt have a roll cage definitly not safe at all and probably not legal at all

kustom play · 05-13-2009, 10:42 PM

you do not need a cage to run harnesses

as long as there mounted 90 or 45 he will be fine
