True that, Chris. I think I didn't use those on my car because I couldn't get the seat in as good a position with the harnesses bolted there.
BTW Noger, I went directly to Luke for mine and they are ace. You'll never regret getting a crotch strap- I couldn't believe how it transformed my pedal control and reduced my fatigue.

Yes, they do appear to !
OK, so 6 points seem a good way to go.
Caterham/Luke have two types, the "monkey tail" ones where the crotch strap terminates on a loop on the shoulder straps, having gone through a "D" ring on the lap belt. These used to get a good review when it was Willans that did a similar thing ? Kept the straps away from the important areas. Quite like this as you can leave the monkey tails under the seat if you want.
Then they do one with a "V" plugin to the.
Willans do what looks like a standard 6 point, and also have "V" or "T" plugins for the 4 point.
Schroth look very expensive, particularly for the 6 point that seems to work with HANS, although their 4 point has some sort of anti submarine fixing that loosens the inboard strap in a crash and must twist you round to stop you going under ?
Am thinking the Caterham/Luke "monkey" ones look pretty good ?

Yeah, Chris said he could fit the 6 point. Just trying to decide which one !
The Caterham one

actually doesn't look like the Luke one (I thought it was a re-brand)

The Luke is £80 cheaper too. Hmmm.
Although the Caterham does look like the "red handle" Luke of old.

Hi I'm new here and have been looking at harnesses also. I saw these http://www.7tips.co.uk/harnesses.html
(sorry have not worked out how to link yet) at Autosport and they looked very good. Standard ones only have steel buckles but they said ali ones were also available. They seemed good enough for my old steed though.
