AFtermarket - Seats and Seat Belts (harness)

I thought I saw a member here that was selling 5 point harnesses and or seatbelts. I've clicked on about 100 members pages in the last 3 days and have yet to find the member. Murphy's Law kicks in again...

Anyone out here help me find this member so I can get some AFtermarket seat stuff?

Thanks in advance.

For seats you can also check SAS - http://www.scaleautostyle.com . Chris makes one hell of a nice Recaro seats.

HERE's (http://www.best1hobby.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=168&Product_Code=mdp501) the set that I use for my models. I'm very pleased with them.

If you have a lot of sparetime yoo could always scratchbuild your own seatbelts :iceslolan

Or not a small fortune. Harness get rather expensive when you put them in 3-4 cars straigh....

Yeah, as my fortune is somewhat limited :disappoin I'll keep making my own hardware when I think it's called for.

Thanks for all the links guys. I appreciate them. It was Chris' site that I was looking for (http://www.scaleautostyle.com) but all the sites are useful.

You guys that are making your own rule. Thanks for the photos proosen. Man, that's some fine work there. I hope someday I am skilled enough to do that.

hahah! The only reason why I can even THINK about modeling now, is because both my children are grown up and have moved out :)

But enjoy your sons. 20 years goes by like a flash in the pan. Every second with them counts.

...20 years, "baby sitting". God, I'm glad that's over with. I may even sex up the wife now.

Nah, better not, why wreck the buzz. :) (jk)

haha... btw, i just bought this 2mm wide (dont ask me how many inch is that) ribbon. is that thick enough? or shud i get the thicker one? i bought this in 1m length, so if i actually need a thicker one, im not wasting $$. any comments of what size u people normally use???
thx

I've tested both ribbon and paper and I must say that paper is the better one to use. Easier to manage and to get the right "hang" on, there's a nice texture on the ribbons but I think it's to out of scale. The paper I use is the kind you use in the kitchen or something like it, the stuff that's on some decal sheet as protection is great. With a felt pen it's easy to get whatever color I desire.
