Default About the Sparco torino seats...

i just bought a pair of grey sparco torino racing seats.... i was wondering if anyone who owned them had mounted the stock seat belt buckelt onto to them to use the stock seatbelts? i'm asking this because i look goofy as hell wearing a four point harness when i don't even race
(i just like the feel of the seats over the stock ones if you guys wonderin why i bought them)

That would be my plan. I don't like the full restriction from the harness on the street when you need to be able to look all over.

wedge engineering sells base mounts that have a place to bolt on your seat belt.

racing seats for show, i can't really get into that.

Get the harnesses, and rig up the stock belt also, Use the harnesses when you go to the track.

If you don't go to the track, then you should.
