well been doing a little forward planning as to what i want to be doing next on my car so looked to the interior i am going for a retro road race style 60s look and cant really put modern full size bucket seats in as it would clash but i do want harnesses so my question is can i safely run cobra classics with 4 point harnesses and do they require a seperate subframe purchasing??

Thanks Josh

Yup they need subframes purchasing as I'm going the same route too with cobra classics (in red). I don't know about harneses though.

I don't think cobra classics are very safe in general :proud: not a whole lot of support from your sholder blades up if you were to get in a crash, and you better pray you don't get hit from behind or you might end up with a snapped neck :( I just sold a set today, always felt like I was gonna break into if I ever got in a wreck.

Edit: I don't actually know anyone thats been hurt, just always seemed like it would happen.

I'm thinking of getting a set...

They've got to be safer than the standard seats.
