the haynes moding book

So that's where all these Chavs are getting the stupid ideas about painting the interior of their cars.

So long as you're happy, that's all that matters, right?

I'm just glad it's your car, not mine.

Let the flaming begin! Lol, I can hardly speak, I put green neons onto my car for a laugh just because they were cheap and it was the Fast and the Furious era, looked cool tho. Never a fan of the colour coded interior trim - to each his own.

If you want to take your MP4 player one step further, try what I did in my Peugeot

like said above each to their own but thats more saxo modding stuff imo. liking the blue neons, had them in my pug and loved them! if you ever dropped anything at night it'd be a piece of cake to find it. might slap them back in my golf, if i can be arsed lol

Nah, that's Nova-grade modding.

On the subject of dodgy modifications, please tell me that these harnesses aren't secured to a strut brace?

Hit anything hard and you might just snap your spine halfway up as the top straps pull the strut brace off while trying to retain you in your seat..... that's providing the lower mounts are properly secured in the car...... also harnesses of that width are going to snap bones as they're too narrow to spread your weight in an impact.

what are you talkin about?! of course i wouldnt have them wrapped around a strut brace, it just for show! i noticed in all your post you think your some god who knows everything and people don't wana hear it im sure. and what are talkin bout those harnesses are too narrow??? what thinkness is a standard seat belt, with all the weight across one shoulder? ive been in a head on collision and i tell you now the pain across my collor bone was something chronic! i know for a FACT with the force dispersed across both shoulders along with a large belt strap im goin to be in a lot less pain then with a normal belt!

dont comment about my car because im not interested in what you have to say!

rant over

tbh i don't think OMP (if that's what the label says) are going to risk an established race reputation by producing a harness that is "too thin"

On the other side, they do look like they are anchored to the strut as a pose to the rear belt mounts.

Now stop crying both of you, or i'll tell.  :wink:
