Installing a 5 or 6 point harness
I just took delivery of my SPF 1352 and would like to install racing harnesses.
Because of our local registration rules, they will have to be FIA and/or ECE compliant.
Sine I would like a rotary cam lock release, that means FIA then. ECE requires push button release.
But all the ones that I can find in Europe are either wrap around design (which is not going to work) or snap-on clips that hook into eyebolts.
Has anyone replaced the normal seat-belt bolts with eyebolts already? Thread should be standard 7/16 UNF. Is there enough clearance?
Also how would I hook the 2 shoulder belts up? Do the 2 clips fit into 1 eye bolt (from what I see, there is only 1 hole on each side in the cross beam behind the seats)

On my car the two shoulder belts are the Y format. So one belt disappears through a slot in the bulkhead to the rear. Remove a rear wheel and then you can see how it terminates with a sewn-on mounting that is bolted through a cross member. Obvious if you look at it. The cockpit and the trunk are separated by a few inches and that is where the cross member is. If your code will not permit the Y configuration then I think it will be somewhat tougher job. I would email Dennis Olthoff at Olthoff Racing with the question and then ask him to ship the pieces you need. I have cam locks now. I rather miss the old style to be honest. It had character.
The front strap bolts to a cross member of frame and the read seat straps clip to eye bolts mounted to frame.

I thought I read somewhere that several owners use separate shoulder straps and just bolted them down together. Can't find the post anymore though
I guess I will have to source belts with bolt on fittings on the shoulder strap, resp. a Y-style strap

Dan,
Send me an email offline. We can discuss exactly what you want to do.

I but my guess is the anchor points might be different for the shoulder straps, or are the frames identical on SPFs an Kirkhams? |

Kirkham cars anchor their shoulder straps to the roll bar, its a built in horizontal bar welded to the hoop bar...
