yep...fia seats, window net, racing suit, racing gloves, etc... all expire after a certain number of years.
the reason for belts expiring is due to them stretching over time.

I believe it's 2 years. But if you don't race with those professionally, it's not a problem.

Harnesses can't be used in competition after 5 years(according to most club racing rules). Think it's 2 years in most professional racing series.

For DEs and autocross, I don't see any reason to throw out a 5 year old harness though. Maybe I'm being stupid here, but I still can't see a 6-7 year old harness not offering the same protection a 5 year old harness does.
